Discussion Question Requirements:

Your discussion question response must include a minimum of two paragraphs in length.
Pick one peer’s post and review it. Then comment in no less than one paragraph why you found the information helpful, informative, etc. You must present new ideas and/or thoughts, merely stating that you agree/disagree is not enough to earn full points.
Students will not be able to see peers’ postings before posting their initial post. Once you make your initial post, you are not permitted to edit. If edits are needed, you will need to reply to the original post and make the corrections there.
A paragraph is considered a minimum of 4-6 sentences.
Cite all sources – you must provide the exact link to the reference. Please keep in mind that citing sources does not mean you can copy and paste information from the source and use it as your own. You also cannot only change a few words from a source; all work must be in your own words. If copying/pasting is found or the submission is not in your own words, you will receive a zero, no exceptions. This also includes commenting on peers’ posts.
Use tables, if needed to make your posts directly into the discussion area. Do not post as an attachment.
You have the ability to, but are not permitted to change your original post, once you’ve made it.
