Research update

Higher Ed · Any subject · Share what they know

What students see

Share an update with the research group. Say what you found, what is still open, and what you will do next. End with one question for the group.

Why it works

Updates take up most lab meetings and leave little time for problems. Posting them ahead lets the group spend the meeting on open questions.

How to run it

  1. Add it to your Space. The Topic comes with this prompt and these settings, and you can edit both.
  2. Share the Topic link with your students.
  3. Watch the posts come in. They appear to everyone as soon as students publish.

Make it yours

Ask members to post the day before group meeting. Share your screen to show a plot or figure, and comment at the exact moment you have a question.
