Practical Issues: Group Participation  Class Participation  Question: How do you encourage students to participate in a cooperative group project?  Question: How do you encourage students to participate in a collaborative online classroom?  Question: How does this differ from the traditional classroom?

20. Collaborative Online Learning  How to encourage participation? A 10% overall carry marks?  Rubric: Focusing on meaningful participation – not just adding entry Rubric  Frequency: Once a week is practical – in reality more frequent participation would put the student in a much better position to make timely and meaningful contributions?  - at least 3 meaningful post/week or per online lecture/tutorial would be an A, 2 meaningful posts would be a B, and 1 would be a C.  - simply posting a short “me too” comment is not considered a “meaningful” post and will not support a strong grade for the week/lecture/tutorial.
