"Parlay has done a beautiful job of pulling together a thoughtful suite of tools for conducting class discussions. Start by choosing a discussion topic from their library: These contain readings and videos to give background information so that students come to the discussion well-prepared. Then students submit written responses to the prompt and respond to one another in writing. Finally, the class can conduct a live roundtable discussion, using Parlay to track and facilitate their participation. When the discussion is over, the teacher gets a report to see who participated and how." - Cult of Pedagogy Review
