Example 1
This Introduction to Oceanography online course uses discussion forums for introductions, current events assignments, journals, FAQs, and a group project for course activities and for student interactions. The current events assignments require the students to seek out news about the current state of ocean science, policy, and conservation and to comment on each others findings. The group project requires students to work together to identify specific issues and make a presentation to the class. The Brightspace Group Tool is used to create the groups for the group projects.
Example 2
This Introduction to Public Health online course uses discussion forums as a course activity and for student interactions.
