I see that you are using iPads for students to generate their comments. How do the students use this when making connections and asking questions? Are these used as a substitute for writing utensils?
Tanya, if my students are commenting on something posted digitally, they need to use a digital tool to do so. If they are making connections and asking questions (both of which I encourage when commenting) in a digital space, then yes, they use a digital tool. We also make frequent use of pencils when we write on paper. Learning BOTH is important. Neither is a substitute for the other.

This is a good thing for the class to learn. Extremely excited to
teach this to my students someday in my classroom.
This is a great skill for the students to learn. Keep on doing good work.
