I. Discussion QuestionResponsesResponses are postings that you create in response to a teacher generated discussion topic question. Each modulewill have one required question. The discussion questions are intended to synthesize the information from the modules lectures, readings, and media. You should be familiar with this material before attempting any discussion postings. Carefully think about the teachers posted questionand craft a thoughtful and well organized response. (I suggest that you create your response on a word processor and double check it forclarity, depth, complete sentences, and careless errors before posting it online.) I do not require you to include citations in yourpostings, but I do expect them to be thoughtful, well written, college level mini-essays that include specific evidence to back up your statements. (1-2 paragraphs)
