Question Details

PADM 530 WEEK 2 Discussion

DISCUSSION BOARD FORUM INSTRUCTIONS

You will participate in 3 Discussion Board Forums.

Responding to a classmate- post requires both the addition of new ideas and analysis. A particular point made by the classmate must be addressed and built upon by your analysis in order to move the conversation forward. Thus, the response post is a rigorous assignment that requires you to build upon initial posts to develop deeper and more thorough discussion of the ideas introduced in the initial posts. As such, reply posts that merely affirm, restate or unprofessionally quarrel with the previous post(s) and fail to make a valuable, substantive contribution to the discussion will receive appropriate point deductions.

This course utilizes the Post-First feature in all Discussion Board Forums with the exception of Forum 2. This means you will only be able to read and interact with your classmates’ threads after you have submitted your thread in response to the provided prompt. For additional information on Post-First, click here for a tutorial.

You must post your thread of 600 words or more by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Thursday of the assigned module/week. Then, you must reply to at least 2 peers’ threads in 200 words or more by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Sunday of the same module/week.
