A Note about Earning Full Credit on Discussions:
When you participate in Discussions, remember that your responses must be ‘Substantive' to be awarded full credit. A quality substantive response will meet several criteria in order to be considered for full credit. The criteria includes length, content, relevance, and proper grammar and punctuation.
Your responses should add new information to the conversation (we don't want to be reading the same thing over and over), use class vocabulary, use proper APA format, clearly cite the source of information that you use, be free of major grammatical errors, and be coherent (easily and quickly understood and without contradictions). Substantive responses should not be based solely on opinion, but should reflect the content of the reading assignment for the current lesson.
It is also appropriate to include personal experience/examples and/or information from outside sources that support the content from the assigned reading.
A substantive post to an online discussion forum will be more than one or two sentences, contain new information, or ask questions that will further the discussion. Short statements like "I agree" or "good work" are not considered to be substantive and will not receive full credit.
