Your contributions and replies should be succinct yet comprehensive. As a general guideline I would suggest that they be at least 150-250 words in length, but they should not exceed 300 words without my prior permission. This will be the pattern throughout the course for all eight lessons that focus on discussion forums. I will evaluate your contributions according to the <strong>Discussion Forum Evaluation Rubric<\/strong>. Please note that the criteria are weighted equally, meaning that your reply posts are as important as your initial contribution post<strong>. <\/strong>To view the rubric, click the three vertical dots near the discussion title, then select <strong>Show Rubric<\/strong>. Additionally, to assist in providing feedback to your posts, I will be using a series of icons to reply to some posts.

(Ch. 10)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you lack sufficient professional experience to make a meaningful contribution, do some research and prepare your post accordingly, providing a link to your source material to share with others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the deadline for submission of your initial post, read what your classmates contributed, consider the requirements below, and make your <strong>three<\/strong> replies, one on <strong>each<\/strong> of the three threads, by Sunday night at 11:59 PM (ET):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For all three of your replies (one in each thread), carefully and thoughtfully select one of your classmates\u2019 posts, and reply to that student. Your reply should either state what you learned from that post and how you can apply it, or why you found that post valuable or interesting, or suggest advice to a classmate who is confronting a challenge at his\/her organization, or offer a respectful counter-argument (if appropriate).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Be insightful \u2013 provide value \u2013 contribute to the learning community<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"has-inline-color has-pale-cyan-blue-color\">WE&#8217;VE HAD A GOOD SUCCESS RATE ON THIS ASSIGNMENT.
