Student-Content engagement to stimulate student success

In this activity

  • The instructions serve as a guide for answering the interactive quest
  • The purpose of this template is to have students deeply interact with scenarios and decision-making. The interactive document presents a seamless experience for students to walk through each step.
  • This template has locked questions, meaning students can’t continue to the next question unless they have completed the previous one.
  • Students can see other peers posts (anonymously) once they have completed their own because collaboration settings are switched on to, “Contribute individually, see contributions of everyone”.
  • Anonymity is enabled, allowing students to contribute and interact with each others posts anonymously.
