Norms for Padlet Engagement
Respond directly to the question prompts provided.
Note: Some questions may be in the description of the Padlet due to their length.
Communicate with respect between yourself and others who have posted/will post onto the discussion board.
Remember Intent versus Impact: Review your writing ahead of creating a new post or responding to another-- Did you convey the message you were looking to emphasize ahead of publishing? Does it create room for engagement? How would someone outside of your view perceive what you contribute?
Review what has already been posted ahead of writing a new post -- This is a great opportunity to engage with another's response without creating repetition on the comments board.
This discussion board has been created for the sole intent of engaging with community utilizing the questions from the CCDEI Modules. CCDEI Site Moderators have the discretion to remove comments that are irrelevant/inappropriate to the threads below.
After you finish the modules, please use this guide as a way to navigate conversation between yourself and others who have completed these modules. These questions were made to prompt further thinking and discourse surrounding the specific standards and how you or those around you fit into them.
