Instead, I want to engage with you in a much less structured conversation about what you take (or find you cannot take!) from both the readings and the lectures. Your participation mark is based on not just the number but the nature and quality of your posts, and the way you engage in the ongoing D2L dialogue that we develop together as a class. I will be present in the discussions and engaging with you.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li role=\"presentation\"><span>To get a <strong>BASIC<\/strong> participation grade, you will post at least one comment in response to the module discussion exercises\/questions each week. Your posts should integrate what you think and write about what you grasp from the module readings (even if partial). Also, think about what you 'don\u2019t get' about the readings. Where does it leave you puzzled or frustrated? Being able to express your uncertainties, confusions, and struggles to understand is also part of good scholarship.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li role=\"presentation\"><span>To get a <strong>GREAT<\/strong> participation grade, you need to establish your presence as a learner, thinker, and writer in relation to this course material and to your classmates. In most cases, I am not looking for a 'right question' or a 'right answer' each week. Rather I look for you seeking your honest, critical response to the material, from confusion or outrage to insight, excitement, and celebration! Demonstrate your emerging knowledge, as well as your ongoing questions. What is your process as a reader from an area of study that may be currently quite strange to you? Are your ideas changing as you go along? (And if they are, that\u2019s a good thing!)<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>Here are some general guidelines that are useful for online discussions:<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li role=\"presentation\"><span>Read an entire thread and respond to what has already been posted. In other words: <strong>Be part of a conversation.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li role=\"presentation\"><span><strong>Ask questions. <\/strong>Respectfully take people up on what they write, and as sure as you can ask questions be sure to respond to questions posed in your direction. You are not expected to fully understand everything in the course readings, so use the discussion board as a place to work through new\/unfamiliar concepts.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li role=\"presentation\"><span><strong>Avoid repetition. <\/strong>Read the entire thread before you post and say something different from other posters.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li role=\"presentation\"><span><strong>Be respectful. <\/strong>Keep in mind that each person is moving through an exploratory process of understanding themselves in relation to course concepts, and this will manifest differently for everyone.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li role=\"presentation\"><span><strong>Write clearly<\/strong>, but don't get caught up in writing perfectly. Avoid the use of acronyms or other jargon we may not understand, but at the same time don't be afraid to try writing in new ways: poetry, freewriting, notes, etc. are all useful methods of writing as we move through our discussion.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li role=\"presentation\"><span><strong>Post regularly. <\/strong>Visit the discussion board two or three times per week and speak up when you feel moved to do so.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li role=\"presentation\"><span><strong>Be specific where possible. <\/strong>If you are using quotations from readings or relying on other sources be sure to cite them.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li role=\"presentation\"><span><strong>Keep it brief.<\/strong>\u00a0You do not need to write an essay. Your discussion post is not an assignment-length paper. Rather, it is a method of participation. So focus on being present, rather than being perfect!<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h1>Project Proposal - 15%<\/h1>\r\n<div class=\"page\" data-page-number=\"1\" role=\"region\" aria-label=\"Page 1\" data-loaded=\"true\">\r\n<div class=\"textLayer\"><span class=\"markedContent\" id=\"page3R_mcid3\"><span role=\"presentation\" dir=\"ltr\"><span class=\"markedContent\" id=\"page3R_mcid4\">Due: October 1<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\r\n<div><\/div>\r\n<div class=\"textLayer\"><span class=\"markedContent\" id=\"page3R_mcid6\"><span role=\"presentation\" dir=\"ltr\">The project proposal is a 150<\/span><span role=\"presentation\" dir=\"ltr\">\u2013<\/span><span role=\"presentation\" dir=\"ltr\">250<\/span><span role=\"presentation\" dir=\"ltr\">-<\/span><span role=\"presentation\" dir=\"ltr\">word <\/span><span role=\"presentation\" dir=\"ltr\">pitch describing the project you intend to develop for <\/span><span role=\"presentation\" dir=\"ltr\">the course.

Instead, I want to engage with you in a much less structured conversation about what you take (or find you cannot take!) from both the readings and the lectures. Your participation mark is based on not just the number but the nature and quality of your posts, and the way you engage in the ongoing D2L dialogue that we develop together as a class. I will be present in the discussions and engaging with you.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li role=\"presentation\"><span>To get a <strong>BASIC<\/strong> participation grade, you will post at least one comment in response to the module discussion exercises\/questions each week. Your posts should integrate what you think and write about what you grasp from the module readings (even if partial). Also, think about what you &#8216;don\u2019t get&#8217; about the readings. Where does it leave you puzzled or frustrated? Being able to express your uncertainties, confusions, and struggles to understand is also part of good scholarship.<\/span><\/li>\n<li role=\"presentation\"><span>To get a <strong>GREAT<\/strong> participation grade, you need to establish your presence as a learner, thinker, and writer in relation to this course material and to your classmates. In most cases, I am not looking for a &#8216;right question&#8217; or a &#8216;right answer&#8217; each week. Rather I look for you seeking your honest, critical response to the material, from confusion or outrage to insight, excitement, and celebration! Demonstrate your emerging knowledge, as well as your ongoing questions. What is your process as a reader from an area of study that may be currently quite strange to you? Are your ideas changing as you go along? (And if they are, that\u2019s a good thing!)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span>Here are some general guidelines that are useful for online discussions:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li role=\"presentation\"><span>Read an entire thread and respond to what has already been posted. In other words: <strong>Be part of a conversation.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li role=\"presentation\"><span><strong>Ask questions. <\/strong>Respectfully take people up on what they write, and as sure as you can ask questions be sure to respond to questions posed in your direction. You are not expected to fully understand everything in the course readings, so use the discussion board as a place to work through new\/unfamiliar concepts.<\/span><\/li>\n<li role=\"presentation\"><span><strong>Avoid repetition. <\/strong>Read the entire thread before you post and say something different from other posters.<\/span><\/li>\n<li role=\"presentation\"><span><strong>Be respectful. <\/strong>Keep in mind that each person is moving through an exploratory process of understanding themselves in relation to course concepts, and this will manifest differently for everyone.<\/span><\/li>\n<li role=\"presentation\"><span><strong>Write clearly<\/strong>, but don&#8217;t get caught up in writing perfectly. Avoid the use of acronyms or other jargon we may not understand, but at the same time don&#8217;t be afraid to try writing in new ways: poetry, freewriting, notes, etc. are all useful methods of writing as we move through our discussion.<\/span><\/li>\n<li role=\"presentation\"><span><strong>Post regularly. <\/strong>Visit the discussion board two or three times per week and speak up when you feel moved to do so.<\/span><\/li>\n<li role=\"presentation\"><span><strong>Be specific where possible. <\/strong>If you are using quotations from readings or relying on other sources be sure to cite them.<\/span><\/li>\n<li role=\"presentation\"><span><strong>Keep it brief.<\/strong>\u00a0You do not need to write an essay. Your discussion post is not an assignment-length paper. Rather, it is a method of participation.
