Please use the sources I’ve provided to answer each question thoughtfully. Include citations. Each answer should be (at least) one fully-developed paragraph, but you are welcome to contribute as much as you feel is necessary to make your point. More important than the length, each post needs to be a thorough contribution to the discussion. These posts MUST represent a sincere contribution to the discussion and/or a genuine attempt to address your classmate’s questions. I would also like to see some attempt to integrate course materials (e.g., key concepts or examples from the readings, lectures, or videos) into your response when applicable.
Each response:
Be sufficiently developed and an appropriate response to the prior post.
Avoid redundancy. If a question has already been answered or a point made, replicating the previous content (or simply stating agreement) is not a sufficient contribution.
Demonstrate that significant effort has been made to integrate various course materials into the answer. (These means that you should refer to specific readings/videos and make an effort to use key course concepts and themes in your answers).
