You are welcome. I just finished teaching the second session of student teaching where several new students join us at the beginning of the session. They shared with me that they were not sure what the Cool Things was originally, but saw everyone participating and did not want to be left out! What a neat comment!
You impress me. I offer a DQ 0 question for the same type of comments and questions. However, your word choice including use of the the phrase "Cool Things to Share" and extra posting encourages students to go one step further.
I find that students can be reluctant to work in groups in the online setting. However, I do see positive feedback in the Peer Review forums. I think it is important to encourage students to be comfortable when working in online groups and there is no need to be anxious/.

Welcome to the 2012 OTS. I look forward to reading your comments.
Laura,
When you mentioned that the students asked for the "Cool Things to Share" post when it wasn't there, you sold me! I will try it. Thanks!
I enjoyed your presentation.
