You may write comments regarding observations from what the authors are presenting, questions in the forum, connections between the audiovisual resources and the readings, or comments on the lectures. You may use 3 sentences at the beginning or end of your post to discuss personal connections or responses to the materials—you liked it, you hated it, it reminded you of something in your life, etc. The rest of your post should respond in a considered and scholarly way to the materials. In your forum discussion post, try to address the questions posed, and be sure to reference materials specifically, so that we know what you are referring to. Keep your post focused on thinking critically about the materials. Write and present something new: a screenshot of a Tweet, a link for a news article, a video that is related to our course themes, a photograph, and include with this your own analysis. It should have at least 100 words. If you follow the guidelines and post by the deadline, you will receive full credit.
