Three posts are required for this week’s discussion. Your first post to should be made by Thursday and your next two posts (which are responses to other students’ posts) should be done on two separate days. You should post on at least three separate days throughout the week (one initial post plus two responses = three total).
Please put together complete and well thought out responses. I am looking for original input so please share your thoughts and experiences so we can all learn from them. Please make sure that you back up the posts with factual information from the textbook, research, work/life experiences, etc.
I am looking forward to some great discussions!
