Join this Ning Network
With a discussion forum, it's a threaded format, as you saw there in the assessment discussion. So you can either reply to the discussion starter up at the very top of the page, or you can reply to one of the replies (each reply has a reply option that goes with it).
We had a really interesting discussion a few months ago about people who are more prone to start discussion topics (like Connie, just to take one example) and people who are more prone to blog (like me for example) and people are do both (like Mike for example). It all seems to work out fine either way - everything shows up on the "Latest Activity" on the front page, which is a great way to see which discussion are active, which blog posts have a lot of comments (often blog posts have few or no comments).
What's fun is that sometimes a discussion will come back to life after being dormant for months, or someone will comment on a long-ago blog post. It all depends on how the spirit moves people!
I hope you are having fun with the Ning. I usually post something somewhere here pretty much every day... sometimes I post several things!
You've also seen the Comment Wall (how I am writing to you now); that's a way to do one-on-one dialogue with someone if that is what you're wanting.
:-)
I'll keep it moving forward by signing off for now...
Greetings! I'm so glad you joined. Laura says you are an educational hero to her, and that is quite a compliment, coming from such a remarkable person. If she thinks highly of you, I do, too! (Laura is such a fine leader. She's always making us think deeply about things, primarily by provided such a fine example of being such an engaged and dedicated educator.)
Please join in on our conversations. Give us some feedback on the site and your experience as you get acquainted with the network.
We look forward to hearing about you, and hearing your thoughts about education.
Look forward to hearing and learning from you.
Jump in and play....
