Packback

A new technology that I recently learned about is a product called "Packback". Packback Questions is a learning community dedicated to supporting students' curiosity by creating an environment that encourages students to be intellectually independent and ask higher level questions.

Manual tasks like coaching, grading, and moderating are possible even in the largest classes with Packback's Artificial Intelligence engine.Essentially, this tool could replace the traditional Discussion Boards where mundane read, write, post is replaced by "sparks".

Watch this webinar to learn how the tool works -

Interested in learning more? We've requested a demonstration and I'd be happy to invite you, give me your thoughts. . .
