UPDATE! ONLINE DISCUSSION

“Will Media Ever Influence Learning: A Heated Debate” 
Thank you all for your initial posts on the two guided reading questions within our online discussion forum. All posts were on time, within the word limits, and responded thoughtfully to the questions. Well done!

 

For W2 Q1, I have responded to each of your initial posts. I look forward to your thoughts on my questions and/or your responses to your peers.

REMINDER: TWO RESPONSES TO PEERS PER QUESTION DUE SATURDAY

  • Post your response to your two peers’ initial posts (per question), so 4 responses from you total, by Saturday, Sept. 11 at midnight EST. Alternatively, you can post one response to a peer’s initial post and respond to someone else’s response to your initial post (per question), so still a minimum of 4 responses from you total. You can of course post more than this if you wish.
  • The goal of the online forum is to give you time to engage deeply with the readings & generate sparks for in-class discussion.

 

BASE GROUP CHECK-IN/CHECK-OUTS:
It looks like all of you have completed the Base Group Check-in question for this week online. Great! Please remember to Check-out by answering the Check-out questions on the schedule page at the end of the week.

1) Login to the course website.
2) Then, go to that week’s schedule page and find the Base Group Check-in (or Check-out) question for the week (e.g., W2 Sept 6-12 Async Online from the drop-down menu)
3) Email or otherwise contact your Base Group members when you have Checked-in and Checked-out to let them know you have done so. This way the group can help support its members, get to know its members, and build trust over time.
4) To see how your answers and scores compare with your group overall, go to the Base Groups page. Find your Base Group.  Click on your group and find the appropriate tab at the top to see the other member(s) Check-in or Check-out Answers.
