Guidelines and Rubric for Online Discussion Boards

The purpose of the discussion board is to frame and promote collaborative learning.  Active and regular participation is not only important for me to see, but also important for you in learning the course content and in developing your thoughts and positions on various topics.

The three cardinal rules for Discussion Boards:

1. Please remember that the cultural of mutual respect that is part of this course extends into the virtual classroom environment.
2. Participation in these discussion boards is required.
3. Participation alone is not enough; a thoughtful and meaningful approach in your posts is required.  (Quality counts!)

 

 

The total of your participation in a single discussion board question (topic) will be graded on a ten point scale.

 

Here is the protocol for posting and contributing to an online discussion:

 

You are expected to participate on at least 2 different days.

You should begin at least one thread and provide at least two posts in response to other participants’ threads.

Posting should be a minimum of one short paragraph.  Word totals for each post should be in the 100-300 words range.  Whether you agree or disagree explain why with supporting evidence and concepts from the readings or a related experience.

Be organized in your thoughts and ideas.

Incorporate correlations with the assigned readings or topics.

Stay on topic.

Provide evidence of critical, college-level thinking and thoughtfulness in your responses or interactions.  Avoid summarizing.

Contribute to the learning community by being creative in your approaches to topics, being relevant in the presented viewpoints, and attempting to motivate the discussion.

Be aware of grammar and sentence mechanics.

Use proper etiquette.  Remember that being respectful is critical.

Discussion Rubric:

Participating is measured by posting on 2 different days.  You should make a minimum of 3 postings in total: one new thread and two thoughtful responses to different members.  Your participation will be graded on a ten point scale as follows.

A Discussion (9-10 points) – participated 3 times, minimum of 3 posts

A-level postings:

• Are made in a timely fashion, giving others an opportunity to respond.
• Are thoughtful and analyze the content or question asked.
• Make connections to the course content and/or other experiences.
• Extend discussions already taking place or pose new possibilities or opinions not previously voiced.
• Are from participants aware of the needs of the community, motivate group discussion, and present a creative approach to the topic.

*If these criteria are met but the 100 word count is not met, the score will drop one point.

B-level postings:

• Are made in a timely fashion, giving others an opportunity to respond.
