Discussion Question: The discussion question will pertain to Chapter 1 & 2. Based on the history present in the chapter, what progress has been made in treatment of persons with mental illness? Initial post must be 200-300 words by due date at midnight. You must also respond to TWO fellow classmates, must be at least 200 words each, due on 09/10/21 by midnight. (this is an extension as discussion was not available for students). Students are required to support it with specific references and evidence, when possible. Evidence is supporting information from course readings, an outside resource, research (book, scholarly article, scholarly journal, scholarly website), or a specific life application from your work experience or prior coursework.
Discussion Expectations: Below lists the expectations for our discussion posts.
- Submit initial post(s) early in the week, and subsequent responses to the posts of your peers at timely intervals throughout the session. The goal is to have a dynamic discussion around the topic that lasts throughout the entire week which means its a good idea to visit the Discussions link to see if new posts are made. You can also Subscribe to each forum to be alerted of new responses.
- Posts and responses should be thorough and thoughtful. Just posting an “I agree” or “Good ideas” will not be considered adequate. Support statements with examples, experiences, or references.
- Respond to at least two of your peers.
- Discussions occur when there is a dialogue; therefore, you need to build upon the posts and responses of other learners to create discussion threads. Make sure to revisit the discussion forum and respond (if necessary) to what other learners have posted to your initial responses.
- Your prior knowledge, experiences, and resources are an invaluable part of the discussion
- Rubric on how your discussion will be evaluated: Your initial post must be the required length of 200-300 words and your responses to TWO other classmates must be at least 200 words each.
