Rubric for extended response ORIGINAL Posting
Here are components of a producing quality discussion forum work:
- Answer all parts of the question.
- Spell check and proofread.
- Your initial post should be substantive in length: depending on the assignment or question(s) your answer may vary, but 200 words or so is probably a good guideline for a minimum. Be wary of having too long a post as well – people may not read it all. So, you may have to review it and cut it down.
- Your initial post should be thorough, thoughtful and reflective.
- Explain. Describe. Analyze.
- Be specific. Provide examples.
- Reference course sources at least three times in your posts. You want to demonstrate that you understand course materials and show you can analyze and apply them.
- Relating your own experiences and ideas is always welcome and makes what you’re learning more relevant to you and possibly to others.
- If you use sources outside of what was provided for the course, cite them.
