Assignment #4: Reflections on Learning:Team Facilitation Activities:Post #2

Prompt #2:

- To what extent did the activities developed by the other team promote engagement and higher order thinking?
- Were their directions clear?
- Was there anything that you thought could have been improved?

Engagement, associated with higher order thinking, derived from the project design:
our team was offered unique opportunity to learn about the feedback process through the use of educational software programs in collaborative environment.
Trough the provided Threaded Discussion Example we were introduced to the team discussion on how technology changes over time. We have learned about different behavioral roles of team members (Instructor of an online writing clas, Student A, Student B, Student C, & Student D), their different styles of response, and assessed students’ work using Nicholson's Rubric.

The directions were absolutely clear.

I would not suggest improving anything: the Team Activity - Providing Feedback - was designed splendidly! I specifically like optional text: Methods of Feedback available at http://www.bournemouth.ac.uk/eds/documents/feedback_methods.pdf

Thank you, Team ThinkTank!
