5. Provide online feedback: Peer forum
Act as a peer mentor / forum member / personal board. Read the following two cases and provide advice to each on this post as a comment before the next class. See GUIDELINES at bottom.
Erica case
Erica would like the class to focus on “How to manage working w/ difficult group members.” This does not refer to this class, but another situation in Erica’s life. Speak from personal experience vs. “you should” or “you need to.”

There was a mix up last week and you read a total stranger’s case! Here is the correct case.

*****************************************
REMINDER TO ALL WEL STUDENTS:
1. Place the words “Student case” before your tagline (www.HotMommasProject.org. Login and go to “my cases” and click “edit” if you have not done this. The tagline can be changed in step 3.)
2. If you do not want this case to come up in a search engine, or for other priacy reasons, REMOVE YOUR LAST NAME FROM YOUR CASE. This is up to you, but, please know this case is out there just like a blog.
*****************************************
GUIDELINES FOR COMMENTING:
- If you have advice: Use “I” statements. Share experience, not advice. Your feedback should share similar experiences and what you did, not “you should” advice for the case protagonist. Share what you feel comfortable sharing.
- If you have comments in praise or how the case impacted you – feel free to share.
- Place the protagonist first name prior to your answer
- Type “WEL” in front of your first name in the name section of the comments form
- Give it some mental real estate
Peer cases for this week (recommendation – LOG IN FIRST):
Find on www.HotMommasProject.org case library or click on names below:
You can sort by “title” in the library which will order by author’s first name.
You will need to log in to see the entire case and benefit from the full features (appendix, discussion questions, Facebook links, etc.)
GW WEL Students: Type “WEL” followed by your first name in the name form. NOTE: If any information is confidential, let Prof Frey know and we will create a separate confidential blog.
*****************************************
TO DO: PRESENTERS (i.e., Your case is being read/presented)
AFTER CLASS ON THURSDAY (all comments in), PLEASE REVIEW THE RESPONSES AND PREPARE A “PRESENTER SUMMARY” which is the following:
FORMAT: Title it “WEL – PRESENTER SUMMARY – YOUR FIRST NAME” All caps.
1. How did the forum’s (class) comments help you?
2. Any specific takeaways that stand-out?
3. Any action steps you will be taking as a result.?
Again, post it after class to ensure you are the LAST post.
