Using discussion forums to enhance critical thinking

Using discussion forums to enhance critical thinking

Australia/Sydney 10.00am | Fri 17th March
USA/Los Angeles 4.00pm | Thurs 16th March
Europe/London 11.00pm | Thurs 16th March

Presenter: Jonathan Brown – SIBT Teacher

As more teaching moves into the online space, students will need to not only communicate with each other but learn collaboratively. Discussion forums are the most widely used tool for building a conversation around curriculum topics.

In order to develop an ability to analyse and reflect, students need practice. This workshop is designed to help you structure and facilitate online discussions which promote critical thinking, and understand the students’ experience of learning in this context.

Come along to this event if you teach in online or blended environments and would like some strategies to promote critical thinking.
