Module 2 Discussion
Forum Instructions
In a post below, respond to the following prompt, which assesses the learning objectives for this module. Then, you must respond to 1 of your classmates' posts. You are not required to post more than once, but feel free to respond to other posts and engage with your classmates.
Your first post is due by the assigned date. Your response to another student is due by assigned due date.
Your response should be at least 3-4 sentences long. You must respond to at least one other student's post. A simple “I agree” or “Yes” or “LOL” will not count. Please think about the questions and your peers' responses and reply thoughtfully and courteously. Use good English grammar, correct punctuation, and complete sentences. While the posts will mostly be judged by their thoughtfulness and completeness, I reserve the right to take off points for grammatical errors or delete any postings that are off-topic or factually incorrect.
