Hi Students,

Welcome : to the online discussion forum. This space was created to help deepen your understanding of key issues and concepts related to the course as well as to provide another opportunity for you to share your ideas in a less intimidating learning environment.

Your participation in this forum contributes to 2% of your final mark.

A topic or discussion prompt will be posted based on each unit/module which you are expected to read and respond to. You are also expected to comment on the responses of at least two other group members. You should make an effort to access the forum at least twice a week. Try to keep your comments brief, as lengthy responses may deter your colleagues from reading your ideas.

Feel free to seek clarification on concepts that you have not fully understood or pose questions that are pertinent to the course.

Have fun and make the best of this forum.

Ms Polius

This forum is a vital asset to reinforce the concepts administered in the classroom. Very intelligent initiative!

A very innovative and technological method used miss, this will surely assist many persons; myself included.

A very discreet method on which students can give their views without stigma. This method i think is very effective and hope to learn from all my colleagues in this forum.

I really like this iniciative taken by the lecturer, Miss Polius to set up a page where us, the students can get a chance to express our feelings out of class.

[Admin]

Thanks for your support, students. You will find it illuminating. But we need to keep it alive and interactive.

I look forward to all the forums as they will foster learning from my peers and also may help clarify misconceptions that I may have. great idea Miss Polius.. Let's all make this a fun learning experience..thanks for this opportunity..

[ndubois]

Can anyone clarify how to go about commenting on someone's post? i cannot seem to find a way

[Admin]

Ndubois, unfortunately, you are not able to comment on someone's post directly following the entry since this facility is not enabled. What you need to do, is to refer to the point made by this individual (what you like about it, disagree with and why) when you are composing your response. There is only one "reply" link on the page.
You will also notice that you can see all posts that have been submitted while you are typing your response if you scroll down.
Hope that helps.

I know am a little late, but thank you Miss for setting up a place which will give us all the opportunity to share our views outside of the classroom.

[mbutcher]

Thank you Miss for catering to persons like me who are a bit shy and often refrains from participating in class discussions.

Although I am late, it's good to finally be able to join the group after so many attempts. Thank you for setting it up Miss. I anticipate engaging and lively discussions through this forum.
