Week 4: Open Discussion Forum
Purpose
The ideas and beliefs underpinning the discussions guide students through engaging dialogues as
they achieve the desired learning outcomes/competencies associated with their course in a
manner that empowers them to organize, integrate, apply and critically appraise their knowledge
to their selected field of practice. The use of discussions provides students with opportunities to
contribute level-appropriate knowledge and experience to the topic in a safe, caring, and fluid
environment that models professional and social interaction. The ebb and flow of a discussion is
based upon the composition of student and faculty interaction in the quest for relevant
scholarship. Participation in the discussion generates opportunities for students to actively
engage in the written ideas of others by carefully reading, researching, reflecting, and responding
to the contributions of their peers and course faculty. Discussions foster the development of
members into a community of learners as they share ideas and inquiries, consider perspectives
that may be different from their own, and integrate knowledge from other disciplines.
