Online Discussions
Mrs. Gossett's students took a Socratic Seminar online using Edmodo. Students created posts in response to Mrs. Gossett's questions about the story they were studying in class. After they created their own posts, they took time to read and respond to other students' posts. Students commented that they loved this format because they could all be "responding" at the same time instead of having to wait their turn in a physical discussion. Even the self-proclaimed shy kids agreed that this format helped them be more outgoing in their posts and responses.
