Hybrid Seminar Rules


 * Inner circle- Four or five students will participate in the inner circle from both ECE and CEC. Each inner circle participant will ask a question about any of the articles that we have read in World Dynamics this week and discussion will then follow the normal Socratic seminar rules: no debating, one speaker at a time, practice active listening, etc


 * The outer circle- On the discussion board, each person in the outer circle will post three (3) "new posts" and seven (7) "replies" to other peoples’ posts.

New posts (3)- A "new post" is a response to an interesting idea, concept, or observation from the discussion in the inner circle. You should include your own experiences and observations about the subject. Also, you may decide to “agree” or “disagree” with what is being said; however, your post must be done tasteful and academic manner. NO MUDSLINGING! NO ATTACKING! Each of your three new posts must include a subject line that clearly states what your post is about.

Reply/Response (7)- A reply must be a response to someone’s original “new post”. Your reply should be in agreement or disagreement (with taste) with the post, but also include any details from our reading or your personal experiences to support your response. To reply to a post simply click on the subject line of the "new post."

__EACH RESPONSE MUST BE 3-5 SENTENCES__
