Author(s):John Fritz (University of Maryland, Baltimore County)
Topics:e-portfolios, eliannual09, Interaction and Engagement, Online Teaching Strategies, Students
Origin:ELI Meetings (01/22/2009)
Type:Presentations and Seminars
Abstract:

If you want students to use online discussions, how do you avoid initiating every thread or simply counting all their replies (including their "I agree" posts)? By defining and rewarding substantive Q&A-and requiring students to submit an online "participation portfolio" of their best work-students will take responsibility for discussions and reduce your burden in assessing them.
