MrsToflinski Feb 2 @ 9:12 PM EST

@smarterteacher Great idea! #SchoologyChat

MissHolcomb13 Feb 2 @ 9:13 PM EST

LibLadyJames Feb 2 @ 9:13 PM EST

A1: I like to see how individual Ss connect content to their own lives. 'How does this story relate to your own experience?' #schoologychat

dmoyscience Feb 2 @ 9:13 PM EST

I struggle to get As involved in discussions, most don't want to participate #schoologychat

TashaRTW44 Feb 2 @ 9:13 PM EST

@ssundine Hey Sandy! Nice to "see" you here! #schoologychat

Mtiesworth Feb 2 @ 9:15 PM EST

A1 #schoologychat my concern too. How to get initial buy in on after hours discussion

ssundine Feb 2 @ 9:15 PM EST

A1 teachers have students embed MoveNote in a discussion to present their ppt and create q and a. Great time saver #SchoologyChat

smarterteacher Feb 2 @ 9:15 PM EST

I also use this as a means for students to comment upon documentaries shown in class. #schoologychat

TashaRTW44 Feb 2 @ 9:15 PM EST

A1. Continued...In addition, it's so important to use the discussion board beyond just text! #schoologychat

MrsToflinski Feb 2 @ 9:15 PM EST

Q2: What requirements could/do you add to discussion board topics to make them most beneficial for Ss? #SchoologyChat

alcp Feb 2 @ 9:15 PM EST

JayVeanCCSD Feb 2 @ 9:16 PM EST

A2: A great open-ended questions and some direction (reply to two and and like three other comments, for example.) #SchoologyChat

smarterteacher Feb 2 @ 9:16 PM EST

Sometimes students feel more comfortable sharing through tech rather than in class. #schoologychat https://t.co/ZCiWmmkz0S

robert_schuetz Feb 2 @ 9:16 PM EST

A2 I like that you can keep responses hidden until one is submitted by the reader. Full Participation #schoologychat

TashaRTW44 Feb 2 @ 9:16 PM EST

A2: Necessary to teach Ss how to have an online discussion. It isn't inherent. #schoologychat

JayVeanCCSD Feb 2 @ 9:16 PM EST

A1: Also provides opportunity for me to have convo with individual Ss, get to know them better. #schoologychat

plan3t_t3ch Feb 2 @ 9:17 PM EST

A2: It is important that Ss are taught to move the convo forward and writing in an academic way - rubrics help this #SchoologyChat

MrsToflinski Feb 2 @ 9:17 PM EST

I love this feature! Gives everyone a fair playing field. #SchoologyChat https://t.co/FewWQJPvZ1

robert_schuetz Feb 2 @ 9:16 PM EST

MrKlinge Feb 2 @ 9:17 PM EST

The discussions that are most exciting for me are those that go on for days, weeks, and even months because kids are engaged! #schoologychat

TashaRTW44 Feb 2 @ 9:17 PM EST

@robert_schuetz Helps Ss think for themselves, rather than relying on the voices of others. #schoologychat

jenastelli Feb 2 @ 9:17 PM EST

@dmoyscience check out the archive of #SchoologyChat that @KristieLBurk moderated, she is an absolute expert on this topic!

JayVeanCCSD Feb 2 @ 9:17 PM EST

A2: Love that a teacher can be in the middle of the action in a #Schoology discussion or just watch the magic happen. #SchoologyChat

robert_schuetz Feb 2 @ 9:18 PM EST

A2.1 When discussions are shared between classes - look out, here comes the BOOM! #GreatStuff #schoologychat

MrsToflinski Feb 2 @ 9:18 PM EST

A2: I usually to word counts. 200 word initial response. 100 word replies to two Ss #SchoologyChat

TashaRTW44 Feb 2 @ 9:18 PM EST

@JayVeanCCSD We've talked a lot about this w staff...is requiring replies authentic? #schoologychat

LibLadyJames Feb 2 @ 9:18 PM EST

A2: Must respond before others' responses are visible, must respond to at least 2 others... #schoologychat

JayVeanCCSD Feb 2 @ 9:18 PM EST

Leverage the power of online discussions by encouraging interaction! #SchoologyChat https://t.co/EioKwliG12

MissHolcomb13 Feb 2 @ 9:17 PM EST

@JayVeanCCSD Yes. At least two replies to get discussion flowing.

MrKlinge Feb 2 @ 9:18 PM EST

A2: Sourcing their posts. Discussions could include critiques and questioning of discussion member's sources. #schoologychat

MrsToflinski Feb 2 @ 9:19 PM EST

Nothing makes me happier than seeing the discussion continue w/out me! #SchoologyChat https://t.co/oi27WnOyxh

JayVeanCCSD Feb 2 @ 9:17 PM EST

A2: Love that a teacher can be in the middle of the action in a #Schoology discussion or just watch the magic happen. #SchoologyChat

JayVeanCCSD Feb 2 @ 9:19 PM EST

@TashaRTW44 If the question allows itself to be interactive, yes. Depends on the participants. Always. #SchoologyChat

DickeyNHS Feb 2 @ 9:19 PM EST

#SchoologyChat A2 always require them to answer mult. Ss responses. Usually give criteria for length of response.

MeganCMoMo Feb 2 @ 9:19 PM EST

A2:We discuss dollar comments v penny comments as a way to explain value of adding to a conversation. No head nods-real words #schoologychat

MrKlinge Feb 2 @ 9:19 PM EST

As always, please follow everyone on tonight's chat and build your #schoologychat PLN and/or make a list for future connections!

LibLadyJames Feb 2 @ 9:20 PM EST

A2: Even when I set parameters, often get responses to others like 'I agree.' #schoologychat

TashaRTW44 Feb 2 @ 9:20 PM EST

@JayVeanCCSD Yes, but how do you move Ss beyond 1 word responses or getting in depth responses? #schoologychat

robert_schuetz Feb 2 @ 9:20 PM EST

@MrsToflinski You got it! Organic! Ss taking control of their learning is the best! #schoologychat

plan3t_t3ch Feb 2 @ 9:20 PM EST

A2b: Some teachers are encouraging Ss to share resources (links, images, etc.) to support what they think in a discussion. #SchoologyChat

JayVeanCCSD Feb 2 @ 9:20 PM EST

@TashaRTW44 Ask a great question and everything is authentic. #SchoologyChat

jpkilner Feb 2 @ 9:20 PM EST

A2: Clear expectations: content 2 grammar; every doesn't need 2 b dissertation. When expectations = clear Ss input grows. #schoologychat

JayVeanCCSD Feb 2 @ 9:21 PM EST

@TashaRTW44 Model, model, model. #SchoologyChat

TashaRTW44 Feb 2 @ 9:21 PM EST

@JayVeanCCSD It's tough for some students. #schoologychat

JayVeanCCSD Feb 2 @ 9:21 PM EST

@TashaRTW44 And for some adults as well. I get it. #SchoologyChat

ZachSwigard Feb 2 @ 9:21 PM EST

@JayVeanCCSD @TashaRTW44 Modeling always my first step, but some ss don't get it. Maybe invite other adults to join in too? #schoologychat

DeWit_teachn Feb 2 @ 9:25 PM EST

A2: Students could set their own discussion board expectations and then post those at the beginning of each new thread. #schoologychat

MrsToflinski Feb 2 @ 9:26 PM EST

Other than "replies" how do we make discussion boards engaging and different from a normal "written" assignment? #SchoologyChat

TashaRTW44 Feb 2 @ 9:26 PM EST

@DeWit_teachn This is great! Ss taking ownership may lead to better discussions. #schoologychat

ZachSwigard Feb 2 @ 9:26 PM EST

Stress the power of class culture. Should be full of self/p2p reflection. Ss post work & other Ss feedback @MrsToflinski #schoologychat

smarterteacher Feb 2 @ 9:26 PM EST

@robert_schuetz @MrsToflinski So it is a short answer assessment piece? #schoologychat

MrsToflinski Feb 2 @ 9:26 PM EST

Great idea! Ss gave me suggestions about expectations for replies. I listened and used their ideas! #SchoologyChat https://t.co/7BJU9B4t67

robert_schuetz Feb 2 @ 9:28 PM EST

@smarterteacher @MrsToflinski Could be. The merits of grading, in principle, can be debated another night. I'm hearing you! #schoologychat

LibLadyJames Feb 2 @ 9:28 PM EST

@DeWit_teachn #schoologychat I love when Ss help create the rubric but that can be tough when they don't have frame of reference.

TashaRTW44 Feb 2 @ 9:28 PM EST

A3: Encourage S choice in how they respond...audio, video, text, embedded content. #schoologychat

JayVeanCCSD Feb 2 @ 9:28 PM EST
