Instructor Directions: Responses:

In responding to others note what you find interesting in others’ posts and why, developing an analysis. • Your response might seek to clarify ideas or bring something new into the discussion. • A response of “I really agree with what you said” or “ditto!” does not reflect your thoughts or contribute to the discussion. • Look for ways to add value to the DB with additional information, examples, quotes from the readings, items in the news
Add value to the DB by making a contribution beyond summarizing student post and expressing appreciation for the quality of the post.

Demonstrate your engagement with the course material, highlighting your learning. For example:
Ask the student a question to expand the analysis.
Provide additional information not covered in the student response. For example:
An example from Takaki, documentary not mentioned.
A newsworthy event that shows continuity with the historical materials covered.
Your own observations or use of self as an example.
