General Forum
|
This forum is the place to engage in discussion topics of a general nature. Some groups have used this forum to start a discussion about the benefits, potential and drawbacks of eLearning. Some groups use the space as a way to introduce themselves beyond the information that they place on their profile. Some groups use this space to share news items or articles they encounter that have to do with the way teaching and learning is evolving because of the innovations of technology. |
In other words, this is your forum to raise issues and make comments as you deem appropriate - it's like a coffee bar!
You can start with a discussion topic started below by the facilitator or you may add a new discussion topic to practice posting on forums. We invite you for a conversation.
Click the title of the discussion topic started by your facilitator to open it and add your voice by replying to the thread.
Regards,
The online team
A technique for managing this forum:
Soon in your course, this forum will fill up with discussions. You can choose a layout for reading the posts. Here's how:
Open the discussion topic and locate in the middle top of the page a drop down box that says - 'Display replies as ...' There are 4 choices for opening and reading the Replies.
- You can open and close (collapse) each post. This is called 'threaded'.
- You can open the Reply 'flat' (the term used for opened posts) starting with the oldest or the newst post according to the date posted.
- You can open and read the post not according to the date posted but according to which Replies are related (nested).
