Material Detail

'The protocols discussed in the following pages were modified from protocols described in the following two books:

• Brookfield, S. D., & Preskill, S. (1999). Discussion as a way of teaching. San Francisco: Jossey-Bass. 
• McDonald, J., Mohr, N., Dichter, A., & McDonald, E. (2003). The power of protocols: An educator's guide to better practice. New York: Teachers College Press. 

These revised protocols help students process readings, podcasts, videos, etc. during online discussions.

For these protocols, it is best to have students work in discussion groups of 4-5, with each group assigned to their own discussion forum. When using a protocol, it is helpful to debrief the activity with the whole group to reinforce what was learned from the discussion, and explore any remaining questions. '
