Getting creative with blackboard discussion forums

Editor's Notes

  1. We often think our students are sleeping in online discussions Offering minimal responses Disengaged posting
  2. The destruction of discourse We think we’re the victims of of the texting, chatting, and Internet generation. We’ve just not adapted to the needs of the students
  3. Authentic Engagement Socially Evocative Higher Order Thinking Skills Conversational and Constructivist Lead by Example
  4. Preceptors – an original post that shows higher order thinking skills on behalf of the presenter and provides an exemplar. (Hall 2015) Virtual Guests – TED Talk Socially evocative – Memes Gather ideas from the audience.
