There is a time and a place for everything! Right? This week it was brought up that some cohort members (yes, me) were being disrespectful to the seminar leaders because the conversations and replies took a life of their own. First of all, I think there are two kinds of disrespect; intentional and unintentional. I never meant for my replies to be "disrespectful" to our seminar leaders and fellow cohort members. I always thought I was contributing to the topic at hand. There is one thing we all have in common on the discussion boards, we all work at SCC and I would have to think that factor is going to carryover to the discussion board, especially since we are all students in an academic environment.
Raise your hand if you have gotten off topic once throughout this entire GMIT venture. I hope everyone raised their hand. I have to admit that I am not as inclined to hit "reply" and jump in on the conversations this week. If we are supposed to stay on track, should there only be ten reposnses per question? I will be really curious to see the total number of replies on the 660 board this week compared to the previous four. After all, there is a time and place for everything and I hope a "blog" is an appropriate forum to discuss a topic such as this!
