DC 3 2

New to this course is the student-initiated discussion. This new format provides the chance to interact with your classmates at a scholarly level regarding any of the Week Four topics. This discussion will also be moderated by the class community. While your instructor will also participate in the discussions, for clarifying details or to provide additional guidance, support, and/or resources, this discussion allows for some autonomy and deeper exploration of the content that is meaningful to you.

Initial Post: Your discussion may be generated from any topic, instructional material, resource, or assignment through this week’s content. The topics must be aligned to the weekly learning outcomes specified at the beginning of this week:

· Identify data collection and data analysis tools appropriate for student observations.

OR

· Describe observational assessment guidelines for the classroom/learning environment.

You must develop and post one substantive post that is open ended, draws on the interest and experience of your classmates in this course, and is directly related to the learning outcomes as indicated above.

Guided Response: You are required to substantively respond to at least two posts initiated by your peers. Responses should be two to three paragraphs in length. Your responses should demonstrate understanding and application of the concepts learned in this course and be written in a collegial tone with no erro
