OWI@UCD Podcast: Meta-Commentary and Discussion Boards

 

 

In this episode, Kory and Theresa are responding to issues and themes raised in a discussion board for OWI instructors. The topic for the discussion was "access and inclusion," but much of the discussion had to do with the concepts of "meta-commentary" and challenges with discussion boards.
