Tips for SuccessIn this course, you will find that short answers are not ideal and don’t lead to deep understanding or communication. When responding to any of the discussions or assignments, I expect you to fully and thoughtfully provide your response.\u00a0 You should address\u00a0all\u00a0of the questions completely, and write in a professional manner (with proper spelling, punctuation, and grammar). Comportment is one of our 5 core values. I like to see full paragraphs or more (approximately 5 full sentences) for your original post; a minimum of 150 words will be expected for this lesson’s initial post. See the Rubric for more information.
