GREETINGS/OPENINGS

A very warm hello to all of our group who have already posted! Dear @ll, Dear all, Dear E-Peers,

Good evening e-colleagues, Good evening, everyone, Hello again! Hello All, Hello’X’ and other peers, Hello there, Hi all, Hi everybody, Hi everyone, HI Stage 3 team, Hope everyone had a great weekend, however you decided to spend it,

and that you have had a happy Monday! OK, thanks all! That's a very good question. Well, I think, You are welcome ‘X’,

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS; THANKS; ENCOURAGEMENT; SIMILARITIES Great idea - very generative - had not thought of doing it for this purpose! I like yours though! Indeed, I do enjoy the e-learner side, as I feel that I have come across a

lot of eye openers and have the opportunity to share my views with verytalented peers.

Many thanks to all! OK, thanks all! On behalf of the whole team, thank you very much, Perfect :o) ! Right! Thank you for your help. Thank you for your insight. Thank you for your response and viewpoint on this matter; I would like to

respond as well. Thank you in advance, Thank you very much for this positive feedback. Thanks for summing this up in such an innovative way. Thanks a lot, for this thought :-) Thanks for the feedback, guys! Thanks for the given support and guidance. Thanks for the interesting statistics (90-9-1) Thanks for the link! Interesting reading. Thanks for your comments and interest. Thanks for your comparison. Thanks for your question. Thanks in advance for your reply. Thanks to you, John, and to everyone because you have probably have

no idea how much I have been receiving from everyone! Thanks very much for this reassurance, Thanks very much indeed Thanks, again, This is a great alternative to the eternal Topic Forum Summary

This is great, Very enriching discussion... Well done Well done to all. Well said! I agree. You are not alone, I have the same problem. You must be superhuman :-) Your contribution is very complete and accurate, congrats!

KEEPING/ENCOURAGING E-CONVERSATION Any more ideas? Are there any possible disadvantages to this, I wonder?

What do others think? Do you think I should be firmer? Feedback is more than welcome, Great contribution, I have a question about the following: Hope you find something useful in it! I'd love to hear what you think so we might be able to make a collective

decision. I look forward to reading your (and our peers`) comments, I read your contribution and I agree with most observations. I will comment away a bit later on! I will write some ideas for you, with all the attention your work deserves,

and get back to you tomorrow! I wonder...what do people think about commenting on the rest of our

colleagues' assignments? I'd be really interested in reading about other people's experience and

ideas on these two points, I really enjoyed reading all the posts this week so far, Let me know your thoughts on mine:) Looking forward to more, Perhaps our e-peers can share their experience with us. ;-) Please let me know what you think about the ideas I am sharing with

you. Thanks in advance and e-see you later, Thanks again, and believe me, I'm never tired to read your posts. Thanks for your question. This is one idea .... but I am sure that you will come up with many others.

Thanks for this in advance. Thank you :-) and Talk soon We look forward to reading your comments and suggestions. Well, these are my points of view, and all your comments are welcomed. What disadvantage do you have in mind? I know you do, so please

speak up! What do others think about this issue? What do you think? Yes, isn't it interesting how everyone had quite a different approach? Your ideas are great; could you mention a bit more specifically which

exact areas are linked to certain roles?

QUERIES/REQUEST FOR HELP Any chance you know how we assess each other's work. Any help? Can anyone help me with this? I look forward to hearing more of my e-mates experiences with materials!

EXPLANATIONS You can click on the link I have provided and access it online.

SUGGESTIONS So I suggest that ‘X’ and ‘Y’ work together in the peer assessment task.

Hope this is fine with you!
