your classmates.
Your first post is due on Wednesday by 11: 59 PM CST. Your response to another student is due on

Your response should address all the point in the prompt and be in complete sentences and in the indicated language. 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, according to netiquette rules. 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, especially if they interfere with the clarity of the post.
