Hello,

Here are some of the things we talked about yesterday in the CAS Online discussion group: Topic: Group Work in Online Courses

• Managing and Motivating Distance Learning Group Activities

http://www.tltgroup.org/gilbert/millis.htm

            It is mounted (as you can see) on the TLT Group website http://www.tltgroup.org/

            Teaching, Learning and Technology

• Group /Team member evaluation form (attached). I’ve used it in my class before, somewhat effectively.

• We discussed an article that describes developing charters for group activities. It is in a “print” newsletter that I subscribe to called “Online [log in to unmask]” (go figure!)  If you’d like a photocopy of it, let me know, and I’ll be glad to reproduce it.

Thanks for coming yesterday----this is a busy (and exhausting) time of year. As I mentioned yesterday, there will be no group meeting next Thursday 10/14.
