Discussion Board Evaluation Criteria

Discussion board assignments are your opportunities to share your knowledge, experience and opinions with the rest of the class.  Together with the homework assignments, they also serve as a proxy for attendance.

The items I am looking for are

Relevance to the topic,

Promptness in the initial posting and response,

Clear expression of opinions,

Good spelling and grammar,

Polite disagreement as appropriate.

Please use good grammar and make coherent points. When providing a contrasting viewpoint, focus on making your point, not on deriding the other person’s point.
