SMGT 406 Discussion Board Forums (2)

Discussion boards are collaborative learning experiences. Therefore, the student is required to participate in Discussion Board Forums. Answers to the discussion questions must be well thought out, presented using good grammar and spelling, and to the point.

Each Discussion Board Forum will be divided into 2 parts: a thread in response to the instructor’s prompt and replies to 2 classmates’ threads. Thus, in order to earn full credit for each forum, the student’s interaction must include 1 thread, which must be submitted by the Thursday deadline, and 2 replies, which must be submitted by the Sunday deadline. Each thread must be 300–400 words and incorporate 1 Scripture reference and at least 1 resource (e.g., the textbook or a scholarly journal). Each reply must be at least 150 words and incorporate at least 1 citation. Discussion board posts must be made in accordance with current APA format.
