There is something about the fact that my work is available to everyone in the world that is somewhat disconcerting to me. However, wikis are extremely helpful when studying for tests because I am able to view other's thoughts and ideas in addition to my own.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12386407405791166373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9087175739561447351.post-91947899695011963632009-01-08T18:46:00.000-05:002009-01-08T18:46:00.000-05:00Chris, as far as the critical discussions about li...Chris, as far as the critical discussions about literature first and foremost this happens during the class period. I sometimes like to continue class discussions on blogs if we get onto something good and run out of time. Also, I like using blogs because each individual student can express ideas or ask questions when they have had time to think it out-this helps some students feel less "on the spot." We also use discussion boards sometimes. I like the one on www.turnitin.com.Jenn Evanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01409574777060379896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9087175739561447351.post-85858013767680372272009-01-08T15:16:00.000-05:002009-01-08T15:16:00.000-05:00I liked the last question.

The hardest part is trying to find the ones that are worth using on a daily basis. But I think exposure is key.

I am curious about how forums or online discussion tools are used. Wikis are a great way to post information and have been edit it but ultimately offer no real way to hold discussions in an organized way. What is being done to get critical discussion of the reading rather than summary/analysis of the reading with no back and forth discussion between the students.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00805932196148583679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9087175739561447351.post-2130981523501157212009-01-08T14:33:00.000-05:002009-01-08T14:33:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00805932196148583679noreply@blogger.com
