Discussion Forum 8 Instructions
It provides an opportunity for you to virtually connect, ask questions, and comment on the assigned podcast and other posts for week 10
- Initial Substantive Posts:
Students are expected to listen to the assigned podcast and discuss at least TWO separate themes/points by making thoughtful comments and/or questions regarding the selected themes/points in the assigned podcast (350-400 words) in the discussion forum each week. For example, you may describe the key points and/or core arguments made by the presenters and/or explain new pieces of information that you learned from the podcast followed by your own reflections on these points/arguments. Moreover, at least 1 outside source (you may NOT include your textbook) cited (in proper APA format) in your posting to support your rationale and thoughts. A reference listing in proper APA format at the end of your posting is also required.
- Required Replies:
In addition, students are also required to respond to their classmates posts (e.g., comments, opinions, and questions). Your replies should build on the concept discussed, offer a question to consider, or add a differing perspective, etc. Rather than responding with, “Good post,” explain why the post is “good” (why it is important, useful, insightful, etc.). Or, if you disagree, respectfully share your alternative perspective. Just saying “I agree” or “Good idea” is not sufficient for the posts you would like graded.
