Online+Discussion--Thursday,+March+24th

Welcome to the Online Discussion for Thursday, March 24th!
= SEE DISCUSSION PROTOCOL BELOW!!!! = You will need to view two videos in preparation for this online discussion (this appears on Tuesday of the syllabus). Each video is about an hour long. As you view it would be a good idea to take some notes to refer to in the discussion. You can use the "See, Think, Notice" protocol for doing this. As you view, consider: What Do you See? What Do You Think About It? What Does it Mean? (about teaching, about discussion, about students) Link to Video #1: [|video #1](Near the bottom of the page, click "View this video." If you hear sound but can't see the video you need to turn off your pop-up blocker) Link to Video #2: [|video #2]

Discussion Protocol:
