What is the purpose of the D/P?
Discussion/Participation assignments are intended to promote interaction and discussion between the students in the course concerning topics related to the course. These assignments are designed to allow student interactions similar to those experienced in a classroom setting. You will get points for “participating” by responding to other students’ Critical Thinking questions and/or RWB abstracts. You read what other students have submitted and comment on what they have said. You can get 10 points per unit for commenting on another student’s CT or RWB submissions (or responding to another student’s comments about your original posting in the CTQ or RWB forums). You should respond to another student’s CTQ or RWB submission in each unit.
