Unit 1 - Discussion Board

Assignment Details

Assignment Description

The Discussion Board (DB) is part of the core of online learning. Classroom discussion in an online environment requires the active participation of students and the instructor

to create robust interaction and dialogue. Every student is expected to create an original response to the open-ended DB question as well as engage in dialogue by

responding to posts created by others throughout the week. At the end of each unit, DB participation will be assessed based on both level of engagement and the quality of

the contribution to the discussion.

At a minimum, each student will be expected to post an original and thoughtful response to the DB question and contribute to the weekly dialogue by responding to at least

two other posts from students. The first contribution must be posted before midnight (Central Time) on Wednesday of each week. Two additional responses are required after

Wednesday of each week. Students are highly encouraged to engage on the Discussion Board early and often, as that is the primary way the university tracks class

attendance and participation.

The purpose of the Discussion Board is to allow students to learn through sharing ideas and experiences as they relate to course content and the DB question. Because it is

not possible to engage in two-way dialogue after a conversation has ended, no posts to the DB will be accepted after the end of each unit.

Focus your discussion on the following:

Of the various aspects of the humanities—history, music, religion, literature, art, architecture, and so on—with which aspect do you associate most? What do you think helps define you as a person and place you within a culture?

What does it mean to you to be part of a culture?

How do your ideas compare with the ideas of others in the group?

Review the definition of the humanities as fashioned in the U.S. legislation forming the National Endowment for the Humanities.

What subjects are not included in the definition of the humanities? Why?

For assistance with your assignment, please use your text, Web resources, and all course materials.
