Original responses to the discussion questions each week need to be substantial (200-250 words each) and supported by citations and references from the course textbook and other scholarly sources if necessary.  Sources used for studies or statistical information should be less than 10 years old. Direct quoting should be limited. Interpretation in your own words is expected and citations are needed for paraphrasing.
