 Online Discussion

Discussion Boards demonstrate active involvement with the material being covered. Students will have a shared responsibility for learning, and for creating and sustaining the learning community within the context of this course. You will be asked  to discuss the issues/cases in an effort to increase everyone's understanding as opposed to a regurgitation of facts.  Communication skills such as good listening should be evident in well thought out discussions. Comments show evidence of a thorough reading and analysis of the power points and material assigned. Ideally there is a willingness to test new ideas rather than offer only cautious or 'safe' comments. Students interact with other class members by asking questions or challenging conclusions in a respectful manner.

Last-minute posts do not demonstrate your best work.  Two posts are required for each module in order to receive credit.

•Contributions are evaluated on presentation of a meaningful ‘informed opinion,’ i.e., synthesis of your preparation on the topic, interaction with peers and faculty, and ongoing learning. Useful posts may include and are not limited to:

oPosting your ‘take’ on the issue, this is informed by your preparation, not a ‘gut reaction.’
