Tara,Because you did not earn a passing grade on this assignment, you may revise it. Before you revise your assignment, please make sure you read my in-text comments and understand what is needed. If you have any questions, please contact me. In addition, make sure you contact me once you submit your assignment so I know it is ready for grading. This short-answer essay was designed to test students' knowledge of some of the key themes from the week.  You were also asked to apply some of this information to some real-world self-disclosure experience.These responses did not quite meet the expectations.  Remember, students were required to answer all elements of the prompt and use course material for all these responses.  First, many times you did not do all of the required elements.  Second, though these responses might have been influenced by class readings, it was not clear and/or deep enough discussion of key themes from class.  I needed to see much more engagement with course themes to illustrate deeper understanding.  For instance, in your reply to the question about defining and describing one principle of rapport, you described three principles instead of discussion one in detail. Also, the required text support was not needed. To improve, remember to review the rubric to see if you must use and cite the text in your response. While I saw some attempt to demonstrate understanding of course concepts, there was not enough here to warrant a passing grade.  In future work, please be sure all responses use course material to support you and clearly and completely address all elements of the questions.Please read over my in-text comments and contact me if you have any questions.Regards,Carol
