Support for Student Learning

These digital tools can support student organization and comprehension. By visualizing relationships and scaffolding complex tasks like writing, studying, and project planning, students can better structure their ideas.

Help students succeed in online discussions by encouraging thoughtful contributions, respectful engagement, and consistent participation, while providing guidance on netiquette, critical thinking, and time management.

Enhance group collaboration by using strategies for  decision making that promote participation, manage conflict, and lead to more thoughtful outcomes.

Strengthen group work by helping students develop teamwork skills such as communication, accountability, and collaboration, fostering positive dynamics and shared responsibility for collective success.

Promote accountability and collaboration in group work by guiding students to co-create group contracts that clarify expectations, define roles, and establish processes for communication and conflict resolution.

Support student well-being and autonomy by using content warnings to prepare learners for potentially sensitive or distressing material.

Promote self-directed learning by guiding students through goal setting, resource identification, strategy implementation, and reflection. This will empower them to take ownership of their learning and adapt to new challenges.
