I did not copy and paste the paragraphs from your paper, but used the same set-up of referring to paragraphs by number based upon their order in the document.
Summary Section
Paragraph 1
Your first paragraph clearly outlines the lesson objectives. I like the way you also described your goals, providing rationale for why you decided to use the discussion board with students.
Paragraph 2
It was helpful for me to read the step-by-step progression of the lesson. Describing the time it took for each step to occur made it clear to me what this implementation looked like in your classroom. As an elementary school teacher, I am not sure of the pace at which high school students complete specific reading and writing tasks in the classroom. I know it is quicker than my third graders, but you providing the step-by-step description made this clear. It allowed me to visualize what was going on in the classroom.
Paragraph 3
I was a little bit confused with this paragraph. I wasn't sure if the students were reading the posts of other groups and commenting on the other groups. Perhaps you could explain this a little bit more.
Paragraph 4
Collecting student feedback seems like a valuable step. It was nice that students were given this opportunity to reflect on their experience with the discussion boards. Did you receive any helpful feedback? Any surprising feedback?
Paragraph 5
How have you previously taught this lesson without technology?
