@KellyGToGo Absolutely agree. Reading should be about comprehension, critical thinking, and forming independent opinions. How do you think we can encourage a more thoughtful approach to reading in today's fast-paced digital age?
Shielding students from uncomfortable ideas isn't education. It's groupthink.
In healthy learning cultures, students are invited to take intellectual risks. They gain the courage to challenge each other's views—and their own.
Silencing dissent is an enemy of critical thinking.
@KellyGToGo@kaysarahsera I can see showing this video in the writing classroom—having students write reflections, paying homage to where they are from.
Our supporting faculty member Dr. @LunsfordHandbks wrote a reflection on our Virtual Writing Group. It's featured on the @MacmillanLearn's "Bits Blog" and describes our accountability-centered asynchronous format and the power of affirmations.
