for this conversation
Here are some of the questions we’ve been asking recently:
What if students were encouraged to create projects for each other? What’s the difference between writing a “Discussion Post” and creating a “Wiki” page on a social network like Youth Voices? How might we consider connecting students more often in spaces like Skype or Hangouts? What would it take to build a “Youth Voices Live” space for young people? How can we engage students in deeper, meaning making in their conversations with each other?
