Sharon Geyer replied to Chem Simoneau's discussion What do you do when a student is absent for a POGIL activity? in the group POGIL- Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning
"It is so frustrating to get kids back on track with a POGIL after they have been absent.  I don't have any magic solutions.  I find it really bad when a student misses the whole thing.  If they come in part way, I usually assign…"

"I'm back on the POGIL train this week with the Gas Variables activity from the Flinn book.  I did a series of demos before the pogil, which I think has helped the students visualized the examples in the activity (not to mention that they…"

Hi Chem,

Did anyone ever answer your question from a couple years back, "Have you heard anything about Moodle or Blackboard? I want to start loading my first unit up, but I'm just not sure where to start."

I have some experience with Bb Learn and MIGHT be able to help if you still need it.  What version of BbLearn are you using?
