The purpose of the Discussion Board is to allow students to learn through sharing ideas and experiences as they relate to course content and the DB question. Because it is not possible to engage in two-way dialogue after a conversation has ended, no posts to the DB will be accepted after the end of each unit.
Initial Post: Write 100 words within the Discussion Board responding to the following questions. Create a substantive and clear post expressing your research, thoughts, and ideas:
Have you ever experienced living in a socialist or communist society?
If so, explain your experience.
If not, share how do you view or imagine a socialist or communist society? Would you want to live there? Why or why not?
Response Posts: Create a 100-word response to at least 2 of your fellow classmates by replying to their Initial Post regarding items you found to be compelling and enlightening. Please consider the following questions when responding:
Do any of the student's statements make you reconsider your position? If so, which ones made you change your mind?
If not, what additional points can you make to directly refute your peer's statements?
What did you learn from your classmate's posting?
What clarification do you need regarding the posting?
In your own words, please post a response to the Discussion Board and comment on other postings. You will be graded on the quality of your postings.
For assistance with your assignment, please use your text, Web resources, and all course materials.
