The Discussion Board is an academic forum. Research is required for all written assignments (text book, internet, library, etc.). You must indicate knowledge of what you are learning. That is how the assignments are assessed. Your personal opinion, bias, judgment is not relevant to the evaluation and analysis of art works. You must indicate knowledge of what you are learning.
Elaborate on the details letting me know that you can demonstrate an understanding of characters’ personalities, motivations, behavior and the situations that give rise to conflict and resolution. Use the terms, phrases and concepts that you are learning in the text when you evaluate specific situations relevant to the DB question. Let me know that you understand the vocabulary from the text.
Format: You are required include in text citation and a list of references correctly formatted in MLA or APA style.
Submitting Assignment: You are required to submit the Discussion Board essay directly to the DB window so other students can read your essay and respond.
Research: DO NOT CITE WIKIPEDIA AS A RESEARCH SOURCE. It is not a reliable source of information. Use the textbook and other reliable resources.
Respond to Classmates: You are required to respond to two classmates with SUBSTANTIVE responses that enhance the learning experience and deepen the understanding of the issues; including links, images and references to indicate research. Substantive responses need to foster critical thinking and help expand the topic. If you do not respond to classmate postings 20% of the grade is deducted.
Length of Assignment: 200 word MINIMUM for main post. A 100 word minimum is required for each response to a classmate’s posting. The minimum will not result in a superior grade.
Due Date: The main response to the Discussion Question is due by midnight ET Thursday each week. A 10% deduction will be applied for posts that do not comply with the Thursday schedule. The responses to classmates’ posts are due by midnight ET Sunday. Discussion Board assignments will not be accepted after the Sunday deadline. No excuses, no exception, no extensions.
