A Discussion Strategy for an Online Class
Reese-Durham, Nancy Faith
College Teaching, v62 n1 p42-43 2014
As a former teacher of face-to-face classes now assigned to teach only online classes, Nancy Reese Durham found herself challenged to change to accommodate online learners. She was determined to provide an environment in the online class where the high level of discussion she had provided in face-to-face classes could flourish as well. Here she describes a discussion board activity she designed that allowed each student to take the role of a facilitator or participant for a certain topic.
