Hi Troy
The forum is a better choice for dialogue between more persons except when the dialogue needs to be private.
On my school we ask the students to write a personal learning log the log is theirs and the other students should not be able to see it only the student and the tescher(s) assigned the class. for now the dialogue module have been a very good tool because the dialogue between teacher and student is private.
we would very much like if at all posible if a student could add 2 or more teachers to a dialogue because then the LOG would still be private for the student and the teachers would all be able to read and reply to their thoughts and ideas.
I have tried using repley all and viewall but now all teachers on my school can view and reply to alle students logs and that is not a solution.
