Click on Week 3 Discussion, title above, then click Create Thread in the upper left, to post your initial response.
The Discussions are not simply statements of opinion. They are intended to allow you to expand upon and apply the principles discussed in your textbook, the lectures, and/or other research you conduct. Each week a question will be posed for your consideration. Before answering, you should review the chapters covered during this week and the lectures.
It is strongly encouraged that your initial post be posted by 11:59 PM ET on Thursday. It should be at least 250 words. This MUST be in your own words. Do NOT copy and paste from the Internet. You MAY use quotes from a source, but those quotes will NOT count towards your 250 word count requirement.
Please do not plagiarize. If you use a quote, you MUST put quotation marks around it AND you MUST cite the source at the end of your post. It is NOT simply enough to put a source at the end. You should also include at least one reference in your post per APA. Do NOT use Wikipedia or Yahoo! Answers as a source.
You should then make at least two additional posts to other students. These posts should be at least 100 words and be substantive in nature. While pleasantries such as “I agree” or “great job” are nice, they will not count as one of your required posts. Your posts should be on at least 3 separate days with all being completed by 11:59 PM ET Sunday.
Remember that participation is required on a minimum of three days through 11:59 PM ET Sunday. The initial response strongly encouraged to be posted by 11:59 PM ET Thursday; two other posts due on separate days and on a different day than the initial post and by 11:59 PM ET Sunday.
