Purpose

Threaded discussions are interactive assignments that require current scholarly literature to support and validate information presented. The purpose of the threaded discussion (TD) is to engage with the class instructor and peers to apply, analyze, synthesize, and evaluate course-related concepts and topics to facilitate achievement of course learning outcomes. Participation in the TDs generates opportunities for students to actively engage in the written ideas of others by carefully reading, researching, reflecting, and responding to the contributions of their peers and course faculty. TDs foster the development of members into a community of learners as they share ideas and inquiries and integrate knowledge from other disciplines. Written interactions on the discussion show respect and sensitivity to peers’ cultural and linguistic background, political and religious beliefs, gender, and sexual orientation.
