Discussion Board

To get full credit for this Discussion Board, you must submit an initial post and respond to at least one classmate’s posting following the guidelines given below.

After completing all three lessons, think about what topic or topics were the most difficult to comprehend and/or what concepts still require further clarification.

Use this Discussion Board to clearly articulate what it is that you find confusing and/or to formulate specific questions you may have about the material.   Please include the Lesson number (e.g., Lesson 1, Lesson 2, or Lesson 3) and the topic or concept in the title line for your post.  For example, if you did not understand the difference between a prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell, your title line might read Lesson 1, prokaryotic vs eukaryotic.

If you fully understood all of the material in this module and do not have any questions about the material, then choose one of the following two options as the topic for your post. 


A. What topic in this module did you find most interesting and why?  Perform an online search related to the topic and share with the class one or more interesting fact(s) you discovered about the topic that was not presented in either the PowerPoints or the textbook. Please include the Lesson number (e.g., Lesson 1, Lesson 2, or Lesson 3) and the topic or concept in the title line for your post.  You must also correctly cite/reference all sources used to research and/or find your interesting fact(s).  


B.Which of the topics in this module did you find most relevant to your everyday life?  Explain how the topic relates to your life and why it is important to you. Please include the Lesson number (e.g., Lesson 1, Lesson 2, or Lesson 3) and the topic or concept in the title line for your post.  


After you have posted, please respond/comment to at least one classmate.   If you can, try to either answer a classmate’s question or provide clarification on the topic with which a classmate is struggling.  Alternatively, you may choose to add something or ask a relevant question on a  classmates post on what he/she found the most interesting or relevant in this module.
