What is considered good quality seminar participation?
There are several criteria. You can link to these criteria from the KEEP IN TOUCH page. For an “A” you will want to access the discussion at least five times per week if not more, read or skim all the posts and contribute to the discussion with posts that help other people learn by focusing on what the book says before you explore your personal interpretation. Use chapter vocabulary as much as you can. Your posts should help clarify the book and raise questions that explore substantive points, deepen the discussion and facilitate group exploration of the text. Submitting your posts early enough for your classmates to respond will also be considered. This means by midnight Sunday before the discussion room closes.
