The flow, clarity, and substance of your replies will affect your grade. Simple agreement with a
classmate’s thread is not sufficient for Discussion replies. You must evaluate your classmate’s
thread, give constructive feedback, apply biblical principles, and meaningfully contribute to the
class discussion on the topic. Your thread and all replies must be substantial and thoughtful in
nature. These interactions are intended to mimic conversation. In conversation, there are
statements, as well as questions. Remember you must not only engage with the provided
prompts, but must also engage with your classmates as well. Substantive answers will reveal
signs of active listening, application of content, and engagement
