Discussion:
Stimulation

I enjoyed reading some of the tips here. 

Sometimes what I htink has helped with discussion posts is to ask something fun and personal while they also relfect on course material. For example, students were invited to join in a discussion about psychological disorders and the post had 4 parts. 

They had to define the term, list two from the book, give an example, and then the last part was to pick two of the literary named disorders (Peter Pan, Doran Gray, etc.) - And in many cases - the quiet or introverted seem to like sharing on that last point. 

The personal questions really invite all students to sharel for example, what would you do with 500.00 if you were handed a check right now? The replies to that question have led to some fun answers and group bonding.
