Don’t forget to include several specific details that support your argument.
Also make sure these details relate to your answer. If you’re not sure whether or not your details connect to your answer, write the connection out explicitly. (For example, “This detail connects to the answer because …”).
Type your response in Microsoft Word instead of typing your response in Blackboard. Word’s spelling and grammar check will catch any typos or errors before you post your response.
Make sure you devote time to reading and responding to one of your classmate’s posts. Your response is 25% of your grade. The rubric has specific suggestions on how you can write a good response.
Make sure you put any material you copy from another source in quotation marks AND that you include a link to the original source. Without both of these, you will receive a “0” for plagiarism.
