Youth Voices - where we encourage random acts of commenting kindness

Students working to become power users on Youth Voices pay as much attention to their comments as they do to creating their own discussion posts.

Each of the four tasks asks the student to engage in an authentic conversation and to use valid reasoning and relevant and sufficient evidence when writing a comment or a reply,

We encourage students to use (and go beyond) the Youth Voices guides for comments.

This process of engaged, sourced comments and replies models what it means to be a scholar in any discipline or a professional in a career.
