In the classroom

Why use a forum?

• Consider other's opinions, share ideas and reflect on issues over time
  
• Communicate with experts, authors, scientists and business community members
  
• Share ideas regardless of distance
  
• Brainstorming with peers, students and colleagues
  
• Collaborate on projects or rich tasks
  
• Cultural experiences
  
• Social experience
  
• Learners can communicate easily and in their own time
  
• People can enjoy the anonymity of the discussions

Students from Bamaga P-12 recently discussed Albert Holt's book "Forcibly Removed" with the author. This is one of the many ways forums can be used.
