It would be cool to talk through those “layers of complexity” and what it would take in terms of both time and infrastructure to do this in a classroom setting.

Students will post to blogs, for instance, but getting them to read and engage with work from their classmates has been a challenge. I would love to discuss how to get students conversing online without it devolving into awkward assigned conversations

Semester checkouts? I don’t have a good answer yet – so this session sounds great.
