Presentation Outline What do Discussion Forums look like in our LMS (ANGEL)? LMS support for encouraging critical thinking, collaboration, and variety Special Discussion Formats Required Post Discussion Fishbowl Discussion Hot Seat Discussion Blogs Wikis Gradebooks Reports

LMS Support Using our LMS (ANGEL), it’s easy to work through a wizard to create specialized discussions built in ANGEL ANGEL controls access levels for users, and depending on the type of discussion, may move users from one group to the next once they post The LMS supports these options behind the scenes and there is no special programming required

Required Posts Discussions When discussions are set up as “Required Posts,” this encourages original thought and feedback, as students have to post first and then can read others’ postings In Psychology, students can be directed to read current events articles from the New York Times and other sources, provide thoughtful feedback (without being influenced by others), and then respond to their classmates

Fishbowl Discussions Students may selectively be assigned “in the fishbowl,” while others may be required to write synopses or summaries of the discussions for the week Students outside the fishbowl may only view the discussion, and not comment Fishbowl Discussions would be especially interesting to use to discuss different psychological disorders This helps to vary the participation and add interest to the class

Hot Seat Discussions With Hot Seat Discussions, some students are placed in the “hot seat,” and are required to answer questions Those students outside of the hot seat are the ones asking the questions In psychology, this would work very well for a case study and having student focus on a particular disorder

Blogs In lieu of participating in a Discussion for the week, students could participate in a blog Students especially enjoy the theory of dreams, this would be content for a very interesting blog Again, this would add interest to the class and connect with the digital natives

Wikis Wikis are an excellent tool for promoting group activity in online courses Students may use a wiki to brainstorm, create an outline, or even develop a group project Wikis in ANGEL may be carefully tracked; instructors are able to see who it doing what, and when Students may be assigned to do an interesting final group project on a chosen, approved topic

Gradebooks Gradebooks provide tremendous flexibility in terms of design preferences

Reports – editor view Our professors generally use class login reports and grades reports

Reports – editor/faculty view Here you can see the variety of report types available for faculty

Reports – student view Students generally use Grades reports and Milestones reports
