    • Introduction to "Ongoing Activities"

      At the beginning of ISWo, take some time to familiarize yourself with activities that you will be responsible for during each of the next five weeks. "Ongoing Activities" include:

      • Your Learning Journal - keep a weekly journal to collect your thoughts, questions and reflections (this can be private or shared)
      • Nuggets - extract or glean "nuggets" that you want to share with ISWo participants. Post these nuggets in theForums Weekly Journal Share forum.
      • Self-Assessment (Participation) - use the assessment method you select (see explanation in Course Outline) to evaluate your participation each week; include some comments about your selected criteria and your performance in journal nuggets.

      • Readings and Resources - read or view, reflect and discuss the articles and media contained in "Readings & Resources", located below the Overview section each week.

      • Mini-session Feedback - Look for the thread for each mini-session (posted by the ISWo facilitators. ForumsPost your feedback to mini-session facilitators
        If you were one of the facilitators, complete the FLIF (Feel, Like, Improve, Feedback) quiz online at the end of your mini-session week (Sunday night or Monday morning). You will receive a response from one of the ISWo facilitators.
      •   FORUM: Open Forum  a place to seek help, initiate discussions, share your thoughts about the workshop or anything else.
    • Ongoing Discussions and Activities


    • We will use this space for most of our scheduled sessions. Also, feel free to use this room for planning meetings or to become familiar with the tools.

      All participants have "moderator" access, which means you have access to all the controls. Be mindful of that when in a group session; your actions (such as advancing slides) will affect what everyone sees! 

      If you are new to Blackboard Collaborate, visit this support page to make you have all the system requirements. 


    • Mini Session Reflections and Feedback

    • Please complete the FLIF, (Feel, Like, Improve, Feedback), form by Sunday night (or Monday morning smile) after the week you facilitate your mini-session.
