Traditional “discussion boards” often reduce interaction to compliance with rigid prompts, deadlines, and quotas that discourage genuine conversation. Yellowdig chose a different path.
In this session, you’ll learn why we abandoned the “post once, comment twice” model to create motivated social learning communities. Backed by research at institutions such as Arizona State University and Bryan University, Yellowdig’s design choices—continuous feeds, no hard deadlines, and an automatic point system—spark authentic interaction and deliver stronger outcomes.
You’ll Discover How Shifting from Compliance to Community:
✨ Sparks authentic, student-driven interaction
📈 Boosts retention and course success rates
🔎 Provides rich data to inform teaching and learning
