https://padlet.com/digisim/human_interactions Please post ideas (1 per padlet note) identifying the "human interactions" that are most critical for student success (i.e. those face-to-face interactions that you have with students that you believe to be the most valuable). You may also comment on other posts and also "like" posts if you also agree with any of them. en-us 2018-12-20 10:52:46 UTC 2019-06-06 07:59:00 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/digisim/human_interactions/wish/319991761 I have found giving a student individual feedback face-to-face and talking through their work with them helps them to really understand the strengths and weaknesses of their work and also gives them an opportunity to ask questions and get clarity on areas of uncertainty.]]> 2019-01-12 23:08:41 UTC https://padlet.com/digisim/human_interactions/wish/319991761 tsmale4 https://padlet.com/digisim/human_interactions/wish/322695488 Students gain a lot of social experience when attending University. They get to interact with new groups of student from a wide background, not only in the academic setting, but also the social. Usually students will also be given the opportunity to work in groups outside of their usual social groups, further expanding their experience and understanding of a wider range of people.]]> 2019-01-21 14:48:11 UTC https://padlet.com/digisim/human_interactions/wish/322695488 https://padlet.com/digisim/human_interactions/wish/322769170 Any and all interactions that challenge the student on an academic and social level; new concepts and theories, people with opposing views, individuals that have different learning styles, students who have different ideas about what they want from university, working with people who are different to them...]]> 2019-01-21 19:44:28 UTC https://padlet.com/digisim/human_interactions/wish/322769170 arhead1 https://padlet.com/digisim/human_interactions/wish/323585995 Guided interactions that encourage peers to share, develop and challenge previous assumptions or understandings...which also requires respectful and authentic listening.]]> 2019-01-23 17:50:23 UTC https://padlet.com/digisim/human_interactions/wish/323585995 https://padlet.com/digisim/human_interactions/wish/323711888 I find it really useful to showcase the online contributions of students as part of seminar time. Using class time to point to excellent discussion forum posts, suggested links and inspiring VLE collaboration: this rewards the effort put in by students online, shows you care about their digital work, and... best of all... gives you a whole set of ideas to scaffold your seminar.
