Usually, this page (the page following a discussion assignment) will contain model answers. Reviewing the model answers will help you assess your own work and provide feedback to your classmates.

But this particular discussion assignment requires you to respond in a more personal way to some videos and articles.

For this reason, there are no model answers. Instead, we will just give some tips for providing high quality feedback to your peers.

TIPS FOR FEEDBACK:

1) Check that you and your peers answered the questions:

1. Which video did you watch? Describe one thing that surprised or interested you in the videos. Give an example; be specific.

2. Which article did you read? What did you learn about the use of statistics in the area you chose? Give an example; be specific.

2) For each prompt, check that you and your peers gave a specific example and provided adequate explanation. The explanations should contain enough detail that someone who did not watch the video or read the article can understand the use of statistics in your example.

3) When giving feedback, keep in mind the advice in the general instructions for discussions.

High quality feedback is specific. It will help someone improve their work and/or celebrate a specific feature of their work. High quality feedback may use phrases like these:

"In your answer I see .... To improve your answer I suggest ..."

"Your answer is good because ..."

Low quality feedback is not specific and does not help someone improve their work. Examples of low quality feedback include: "Good job!", "I agree.", "Needs work."
