Talk:Unit 1 Collaboration

Unit 1 Review -- Catherine Strattner 12:01, 25 November 2012 (EST)

Hello Robert,

I am very much interested in the topic of your course and I feel that you do a very nice job of outlining the main ideas for Unit 1. I also like the reading you chose as it offers a thorough overview of collaborative learning in the online environment. I believe the discussion prompt will engage students and activate their prior knowledge and establish personal relevance. One question I have is how you will assess whether the students have met the unit objectives. Will this be done through the discussion? If so, is the discussion prompt explicit enough to elicit visibility of the knowledge referred to in the objectives?

I look forward to seeing your final product!

-Catherine

Hi Robert,--Corie Quattrocchi 19:40, 28 November 2012 (EST)

I have been following the development of your course because I know you are an online instructor and I am hoping to learn from your model. Your unit is clear, didn't take to much of my time and I understood what I was going to learn. Then I got to your discussion and I was wondering, because I don't have much if any online collaboration experience, what I could contribute to the discussion?

I will keep checking back. I feel this mini-course is very valuable!
