One of the first things you may have to do is reply to a discussion board. Below are some tips for being a successful participant:
- Read your syllabus to acquaint yourself with your instructor's discussion board policies. Are discussion boards optional ... or required? How will the discussions be graded? What are the length and form requirements for the replies? What are the deadlines for initial responses and follow-up replies?
- Employ good academic writing when composing your discussion responses and replies. This includes using correct capitalization, punctuation, and avoiding contractions, abbreviations, slang and other stylistic errors.
- Use good login when answering questions and responses. Assure that your posts include adequate flow, logic, and focus. Do not assume that your instructor or peers can read your mind.
- Respond respectfully to your peers in a way that indicates you understand their responses. Cite reasons for agreement or disagreement and include a reference to the textbook, website, or other resource.
