Discussions should be thoughtful contributions to the class and at least 1-2 paragraphs in length. Although discussions may be less formal than a research project, students should still present themselves in a professional manner that respects the opinions of classmates. Students should also reference materials they utilize to support their discussion posts using APA format. See the assignments and grading page in the course information module for the rubric.
