I loved the recommendations of different options for platforms where students can communicate with eachother and the instructor. Currently, I teach and have a hard time with email overload. This can also sometimes negatively affect the relationship with the student due to poor response times. When a student has a question and/or concern, this is urgent to them in the moment. However, they forget that the instructor may have other students and/or tasks they need to prioritize. By having these platforms built into the course allows one hub for communication specific to the topic, course, and/or concern/question.
