Sample of a Discussion

Discussions are a way for instructors to facilitate interaction between students. They also provide students opportunities to use higher order thinking skills (based on Bloom's Taxonomy of the Cognitive Domain). Discussions can provide students the opportunity to practice using the knowledge and skills they have gained. Additionally, instructors are able to use discussions as a tool to foster the development of a classroom community and assess student performance.
