I logged in today and finally saw that some students had started to engage with the discussion boards but also with the Assessment tab here. What a relief! I was beginning to think that there were no students in the unit. I have had about 6 of the 14 actually engage which I am happy about. At one point I was going to start to allocate the students to groups themselves for assessment two aas not much was happening. I might still need to do this soon if students don't seem to engage...we will play a waiting game! I tried to individually respond to all the discussion board messages that were posted. My rationale for this was not only did it personalise the experience is but this form of discussion board can generate 'data' that gives themes based on experience and then students can see how thematic research occurs using qualitative studies.
SOme very good responses based on personal experiences - they seem to be really switched on so hopefully some of the readings (especially Arnold and some others) give them some questions to ponder in their own practice. I am also really looking forward to seeing their one page philosophical papers on physical education.
