#TrainerTip: Have you selected the option "Users must post before seeing replies" in discussion, hoping to stop unwanted collaboration? Go to Course Settings-Course Details- and scroll down to "More Options". Uncheck the "Let students edit or delete their own discussion posts".

Well, Flipgrid is now completely free for all. Can't use the subscription cost as an excuse not to try it anymore. I don't know of a better way to offer EVERY student an opportunity to contribute and engage. https://t.co/C3WNf36TEO

Closed-minded people are more likely to make statements than ask questions.

[Harvard Graduate School of Education (HGSE) @hgse]

Teachers: Encourage students to think beyond checklists and more like #factcheckers when assessing digital information. They’re less likely to be misled when they harness the power of the web to determine trustworthiness.
