Knowledge Dig 3
The main purpose of a knowledge dig is to encourage students to dig beneath the surface of the readings and audiobook (and any other relevant learning materials for a specific session). Towards this end digs are formatted like a discussion.
Being a good discussant involves three skills: reading and reflecting deeply about the learning materials, posting thoughtful questions and comments, and taking the time to carefully read the e-discussion as it unfolds.
One implication of this format is that as the discussion evolves you'll need to make sure to read the previously posted discussion points before posting your question. You’ll also need to keep checking the discussion even if you have already posted a comment and a question.
