Hey faculty... maybe start prompting students' responses in online discussions. Encourage them to:
Confirm– provide supporting evidence for others’ statements
Challenge– provide contradicting evidence for others’ statements
Extend– Reconsider others’ statements in different circumstances
Apply– Use others’ statements to analyze a real-world problem
