Discussion Board Guidelines

Students must respond individually to the Discussion Board question and forge a discussion with at least two class members.
Discussion Board postings should be “original thought” posting. Unless requested to do so, students should not use the internet to create discussion board responses.
Discussion Board postings should be 300 words minimum in length, provide evidence of reading comprehension through illustrations from the reading assignments, critical thinking, and consideration of others’ views.
When Discussion Board work is assigned on the syllabus schedule, students must post their responses by the appointed time and respond to at least two class members’ posts within 48 hours/at the appointed time.
Discussion Board work is time-sensitive. Late submissions will not be accepted/will receive a zero.
It is STRONGLY suggested that you visit the discussion board frequently after your work is completed to see where the discussion is going and to further respond to your group members (or your instructor) if need be.
