    Group Discussion Questions (1 Clinical Hour for each)

    Discussion Question- Assessment due 2/14/20

    Discussion Question- Clinical Projects due 3/6/20

    Purpose of this assignment: Threaded discussions are scholarly group discussions conducted on-line through Canvas. These discussions are designed to stimulate thought, interest, and analysis between and among participants. The first question will stimulate conversation about information gleaned from the Community Assessments, Windshield Survey, and Key Informant interviews. The second question will give you the opportunity to share about your clinical projects.

    The class will be divided into discussion teams based on their clinical groups. Your presence in the discussion will be monitored and graded. Each discussion question will be made available one week prior to the due date. You are required to post ONE original response and ONE comment on another student’s response by the due date. Posting additional comments and engaging in back and forth online conversation is encouraged but not required.

    To receive the points available for each discussion, you must actively participate in the discussion with substantive postings which address all components of the discussion question. As in a face-to-face discussion, during threaded discussion you may raise questions, ask for clarification, answer questions, and comment on the remarks of others. Note that a quick response to another student (e.g. “Yes, I hadn’t thought about that”) will NOT count toward your postings. Your responses to the original questions and to postings from your fellow classmates should be thoughtful, meaningful, informed, and polite.
