WebScope® Technology

Structured Dialogic Design® is implemented online through WebScope® Technology.  The approaches share fundamental approaches; however, online applications do not have the full range of face-to-face dialogue exchanges.  In efforts to align the face-to-face and the online approaches, accommodations to the original process have been made.  This page introduces tools used in the online application of structured dialogic design methodology.

NOTE TO FIRST TIME USERS.  For teachers or conveners who have not used a wiki before and are using WebScope for the first time, we can provide consultative support by contacting us through INFO@GlobalAgoras.org
