Overview

Students will complete a Preflection in the Canvas discussion board to discuss their views on organ donation. Next, students will watch a video on a donor and their recipient and answer questions regarding how they believe organ donors are chosen.

Teacher's Notes

Asynchronous Instructions

For Pt. 1, give a day for students to do an initial post. You can wait until the following day to enable responses. Make sure that students create an initial post before they see their peer’s posts. Monitor the discussion board and feel free to add encouraging comments to students' posts. At this point, you do not need to worry about clearing up misconceptions.

Part 1, Optional Modification:

An alternate platform for this activity is using  Edpuzzle to embed the questions in the video for students to answer. If Edpuzzle is preferred, remove the quiz format, and replace it with a Canvas page that includes instructions and a link to the Edpuzzle activity.
