Instructions
This Discussion Board requires you to answer four questions. For each question, do not simply provide an answer; make sure you explain how you arrived at that answer. Please see the corresponding grading rubric to see how each question is assessed. This is an opportunity for you to show your knowledge and understanding of the weekly concepts. You are strongly encouraged to respond to your classmates’ posts with positive and meaningful feedback and will receive up to one point extra credit per discussion board if you do so. This is meant to be a place where we can learn from one another in an engaging and supportive way!
