Reply to Gordon Smok's post:I agree with you 100%. I have been teaching online for over a decade, and I always find it difficult to engage students through discussions. On the other hand, rewarding students for their effort seems to work. That's why I don't have any problem giving points to encourage students to be involved in a fruitful chat/discussion that others will benefit from.
