Group Discussions
From SOLR Wiki
Structure for Final Roundtable Discussions
For the last 60 minute sessions, the current plan is to split into 5 groups (roughly corresponding to the themes explored over the course of the day). During a 30 minute discussion, the hope is that you will
- share what you are doing with each other
- identify and then brainstorm any specific problems you are facing
- report back on any specific next steps you can think of that arose from this meeting
We will reconvene for the final 30 minutes with each group getting 5 minutes to report back any high points in their conversations.
Group 1 - LMS-Oriented Learning Content Management Strategies (general)
