It was good getting to hear other people explain the content from our readings this week, especially the information from the small group discussion. I had read everything beforehand, but I didn't necessarily feel comfortable with all the terms. The small group discussion helped. It was frustrating as far as the technology goes, but hopefully we will be able to work that out. It's definitely a good thing to speak and listen rather than just type in the chat area.
I really love the spirit of our group. Even though many of us have not met each other in person, there seems to be a good sense of collegiality already. People are very encouraging while we are live and also in the comments in the threaded discussions. Thursday afternoons are becoming something I look forward to.

I totally agree with you that small group discussion was really helpful. It gave us a chance of studying collaboratively.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you that working with the material is very helpful. Reading it just is not enough. I definitely have to work with it as well.
ReplyDeleteI am glad that the social aspect of online learning is working out for you. Research has shown that it is very important.
