Assignment
Prepare an initial researched and cited discussion response early in the week about the topic you choose and follow with at least two researched and cited replies to other class members or your instructor. Please provide complete, well designed and substantive (150 words or more) responses in the discussion. Research and APA references are necessary for every post. Wikipedia is not an acceptable resource, nor is your textbook. The purpose of the discussion is to go BEYOND the material covered in the text.
Post a minimum of three meaningful, researched and cited contributions each week. When there are high-quality posts submitted in the discussion, then, there is a better chance for a high-quality grade. Any minimum work deserves a minimum reward.
Avoid Creating new threads, Why?
When we create new threads, we introduce the possibility that someone could miss what we have to say because they have to leave one discussion to move to another just to see what is going on in that thread. Because most prefer to respond to another's comment, keeping all comments in one discussion thread works best for sharing our knowledge.
