• You are required to respond to at least two of your classmate’s original posts. They are to be thought provoking responses. In other words, your reply needs to be more detailed than “Great job,” or “I like what you said here.” Responses are due by 11:59 PM on Saturday, March 11.
• It is critical that you are forthright and genuine with your opinions when it comes to participating in our class discussions. However, it is essential that you tie your opinions into the literature and substance of the topics being covered within the class for that particular week. In other words, your responses should allude to, and suggest a sort of understanding/comprehension of the material being covered in class for that period of time.

• Do not use the following sources:
  • Wikipedia – no wiki pages at all.

  • If the work is plagiarized, your grade will be a 0.
  • Remember if what you write is not your words, thoughts, or ideas you must cite the source and quote appropriately.
