Feb. 25, 2019 ODNT Episode 43 Get discussions moving! (Part 2 of 3 in Fostering Discussion Skills)
In this episode I talk about the next things I did in fostering stronger discussion skills. Some students are intimidated by students that speak up so easily; so I held a discussion on more general questions that everyone could answer and gave them the opportunity to communicate online and in person. The questions worked well for me and maybe they will for you too!! The questions focus on getting groups "in-sync" and I found them in a book and on Twitter. Just did some research and got a lot of ideas, I listed some of the resources below.
