OMDE601 Discussion thread

13.1 :-) Brent to Thomas' Intro
3.1.1 :-? Thomas


3.1.4 :-) Linda Heil (to Thomas?)

I find I must defend my fellow study group member.

Online discussions are successfull learning tools, as long as the guidelines are clear and followed by all. Of course, the instructor would have to model the behaviors expected of the students and would also be resposible for monitoring the participants' conversations.

In the preweek conference Where do we go from here? Thomas wrote, "Mutual support is especially important in virtual seminars since the quality of a seminar is created by all those involved."

Perhaps Brent's response to this debate, and the first one posted which takes courage, was only a foil for Thomas!
