Great tool to document conversations in the classroom in upper grades.

I would think it is a good way to check for understanding.  Also discussions using this platform can continue outside of class.

This would be a great way to check for understanding at the end of a lesson. A question could be posed and students could leave comments or questions about the topic. As well, it would help the teacher to see what understanding and misconceptions the students have.

It's a great way to collaborate together easily. Easy to set up and ready to use right away in real time.

This seems like a useful tool for students to do a brain dump, aka quick write, where they write down everything they remember about a specific topic.

Discussions would be great to use in any subject, but im getting ideas for health, social science and science activities. Great unit opener!

I think for now it would be easiest to use it with my colleagues to discuss school decision making topics. We can share ideas so that when we meet as a whole group, everyone has had time to think about the topic and hear what others have to say as well before coming together to make a decision.

For ELA, you can have students comment on a close reading question. You can also use to answer a word math problem - this way students can see there are more ways to solve a problem. If they don't explain their thinking well, other students will ask questions which hopefully will improve explanations in the future. You could try it as a number talk.

I can use the discussion tool to help all students share their ideas on a similar issue/concept in a more organized way. For example, I can post one of the literature discussion questions on here and have all students share their thoughts, so that they all feel heard. During science, this can also be used to have students comment on a phenomena and write what they think is occurring, then be able to share it with the entire group.

Discussions can be used to respond to any lesson, an exit ticket, and TDQ responses, so many more...

This would be great for students to practice using different media and responding to it as we practice with interim assessments.

Students can share their opinions or book reviews.  Students can view videos and share key details. Students can solve math problems and post their answers in a discussion.

Discussion questions for novel studies/book clubs- opinion writing - math talks, predictions, hypothesis, evaluate a writing sample

I think this is best used in grades higher than kindergarten/first. It is a good way to use technology with student to student discussions. It also encourages proper digital citizenship as it reinforces the lessons we have been teaching about digital footprint, and responsible use.

This is a great tool to use with older students. Unfortunately, I teach kindergarten students and this would be difficult for them to do.

Discussions can be used to send messages to all my teachers who have questions about Schoology or EGP and everyone can participate.

I can use discussions in the classroom as a tool for responding to text, a way to check for understanding in any academic subject, or a place for students to ask questions and seek answers from the teacher and their fellow students. For schools that are one-to-one with devices, this could be a game changer.

I can use discussions for opinions about a topic such as what they think about a book or a character. I might use it in health to discussion making good decisions.

This is a great way to hold students accountable for a discussion.

I would use it for UNIT OPENER discussion.

Discussions can be used for so many topics and subjects in the class. I would love to use it as a listening and comprehension tool because this would help students to prepare for the SBAC. I love the idea of posting a video with comprehension questions or even having students use it to give each other feedback. I definitely will be implementing this in my class.

# data[].attributes.body
I can use the discussions to check in with staff, have conversations about ideas and input on what is needed .
With the students or parents i can use it to share ideas or a quick response on projects or assignment that might be take home projects.  I can even use them to have them give me preferred times for conferences.

I think this would be great to start the day if your students have access to their own computer on a daily basis. You can post a question and have them answer it. It gives great feedback and I really like the graded/ungraded feature as well. It also provides great feedback for student presentations.

I would use this tool for so many things. I could see myself using it for health and having them watch clips and responding to questions and being able to respond to their peers. I actually would also use this for science so they could watch a particular clips on their own and when we come  to whole class discussion, each student will be prepared.

Discussions can be used with any subject. With colleagues, it can be any specific question that you want the staff's input.

In the classroom, I can use discussions to post comprehension questions about a novel we are reading, unit openers, and prompt responses. With my colleagues, it could be used to reflect on professional development or share grade level ideas.

I teach TK/K is there an audio option?

students can build on each others ideas - perhaps use it as a unit opener to see what students know about a particular topic?

I can see using discussions across the 5th grade as we prepare for CIMI field trip and our annual Colonial Faire.

reading book clubs or partnerships can have discussions about the book they are reading. They can respond to a prompt or specific focus.

I think my colleagues would enjoy using this to share info that is discussed in ILT meetings and grade level meetings.

In addition, I think grade levels could engage in cross classroom lesson talks

I think colleagues would love this to share strategies and ideas.

Discussions could be used in a unit opener to see what students already know or when you want to evaluate student understanding of a topic.
