Week One Participation-Psych

Participate in class discussion.  Note that you need to post at least 6 substantive comments on 3 separate days in either the recommended or the required learning activities.  The grading information is attached, please note that there is a word count minimum.  I need to see you post substantive comments of at least 100 words, excluding citations and references per post.  While you do not have to provide citations and references in every post, I would like to see you use them in the majority of your responses.

Additionally, please keep in mind that if the post is too similar to its source (i.e. contains hyper-links, or has an excessive amount of quotes, or is barely paraphrased) it will not be counted as substantive.  Posts that do not pertain to the topic at hand will also be marked unsubstantive.
