Discussion

Throughout this course, many opportunities are available to post an initial response to a Discussion topic as well as to respond to your classmates' responses.

After you have completed the reading, and without reviewing your classmates' responses, post your initial response to the following discussion. Your post should be at least 300-350 words in length and should extend the discussion of the group supported by your course materials and/or other appropriate resources.

After you have submitted your initial post, review some of your classmates' posts and respond to at least two of your classmates. Your response to other students should be at least 100-150 words in length. Refer to your Discussion Board Rubric in your Syllabus for specific grading explanation.
