When it comes to our [the instructor] being part of the conversation in the discussion board, how much is too much?
I teach math and when a student asks how to work a problem, I may explain how the concept is worked or I may refer them back to the book, then sharing a problem and asking for the students to post the next step towards a solution or the full step by step.
Does anyone believe this is a good start to creating an environment of teaching students how to be self reliant or should I be offering more?
