- prep material beforehand; having knowledge about what is going to be discussed
-taking turns speaking
-encourage others to share 
-maintain focus on the speaker]]> 2021-01-14 17:14:03 UTC https://padlet.com/jdbrown8/vsynlkdcis8njldo/wish/1088198087 https://padlet.com/jdbrown8/vsynlkdcis8njldo/wish/1088198709 Rather than start discussions on a really broad topic immediately, start with more focused discussions on smaller ideas.

Everyone pays attention so they can contribute.

Be respect of other's ideas, encourage participation. 

What didn't work:
People summarizing the previous ideas instead of contributing new ones.]]> 2021-01-14 17:14:09 UTC https://padlet.com/jdbrown8/vsynlkdcis8njldo/wish/1088198709 https://padlet.com/jdbrown8/vsynlkdcis8njldo/wish/1088198752 - Don't interrupt while someone is speaking, while still talking enough so there isn't too much silence.
- Be respectful while commenting on other's thoughts.
- Actively try to include others in conversations]]> 2021-01-14 17:14:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jdbrown8/vsynlkdcis8njldo/wish/1088198752 https://padlet.com/jdbrown8/vsynlkdcis8njldo/wish/1088199588 What worked well?
- showing attentiveness through eye contact/active listening
- asking clarifying questions to clear up misunderstandings
- having a list of sentence starters to help initiate conversation
What didn't?
-  2-3 outgoing people would sometimes dominate the conversation
-  over Zoom, timing can sometimes be difficult (unintended interruptions are pretty common)]]> 2021-01-14 17:14:19 UTC https://padlet.com/jdbrown8/vsynlkdcis8njldo/wish/1088199588 https://padlet.com/jdbrown8/vsynlkdcis8njldo/wish/1088199639 What worked well?

-  Build on the conversation, continue what others are talking about.
-  videos on.
- taking turns when talking, don't overlap talking.]]> 2021-01-14 17:14:33 UTC https://padlet.com/jdbrown8/vsynlkdcis8njldo/wish/1088200915 https://padlet.com/jdbrown8/vsynlkdcis8njldo/wish/1088202075 - Everyone should be actively participating
