Discussion #2 (Chapter 7)

 

How long do you think it is appropriate to wait in a relationship before engaging in sex?

Why?

Book: Ask for login for book and citing.

Requirements: You will participate in two online discussion this semester.

Fully answer the question(s) of each Discussion (175-word minimum) and respond to two other student’s posts (75-word minimum). Simply saying “good point or “I agree” will not suffice and will result in a grade of zero (0) for the response. Your response posts must expand the conversation.  There is a separate due date for your initial post and for your responses. You will not see what other students are posting until your initial response to the discussion question.

· You will be graded on content and mechanics. Be sure to answer the question presented. Mechanics include sentence structure, spelling, punctuation, grammar. Be sure to proofread your discussion before submitting it. You must be thoughtful, respectful and thorough in your posts (it is always a good idea to post references if the idea is not your original thought – plagiarism in any form is not tolerated).  

· Etiquette is required. Remember that words are forever. Once you submit it will be stored on servers for others to read. You won’t be able to easily take back your words. Avoid language that is humorous, angry, sarcastic, or offensive. You are interacting with people, not a computer, so remember to use a respectful “tone,” whether you are agreeing or disagreeing with another person’s posting. Keep in mind that you should not use netspeak abbreviations (“u” for “you”, “R” for “are”), emoticons, or acronyms, and if using others’ ideas or quotes, cite your references just as you would in an academic paper.

· Student driven discussion. Although I will be reading the discussion board posts regularly, I will not reply to each person's post. I want students to reply to each other. I may post new threads, ask questions, ask for clarification, and add information and discussion summaries as needed. I expect each student to read all other student posts and replies.  

· This is your opportunity to show critical thinking. You may respond to as many discussion posts as you wish and you may continue the discussion with another student until it is complete.
