All members of the designated lead group are expected to read the specified pages in the textbook and other materials (such as journals, books, or web materials) in order to provide input to the moderator who will facilitate the assigned portion of the discussion in their forum.As in the past, one Discussion Board will be available weekly. Please be sure you participate as an individualas well as a member of the leadership team during the assigned period. Moderators should read the materials posted, gather input from group members, and provide feedback/responses to classmates on behalf of their team during the assigned week. Although the moderator serves as primary spokesperson and facilitator, the entire team is responsible for guiding the assigned portion of the discussion in their allocated week.Grading criteria from the course syllabus are shown below for your consideration in leading discussions: Answer the original post and respond to classmates to earn the maximum possible points. Answering the original post means completely addressing the questions posted on the discussion board forum by the instructor. Responses should go beyond simply agreeing with an original post to expand the breadth and depth of the overall discussion. A Discussion Board Posting is evaluated based on the following criteria: Answers all questions succinctly in the student’s own wordsSupports positions taken with specific examples Provides a timely response according to participation requirements Uses correct grammar, punctuation, spelling and writing style Applies APA format and includes all necessary citationsContains relevant responses and constructive feedback to at least one other student’s postingDraws on relevant personal experience to apply theoretical principles to actual work environments Enhances the overall quality of the discussion (i.e. suggests new perspectives on issues, asks questions that help further understanding, and cites relevant current articles, news or events.)Please see the file TEAMS (available IN THE WEEK TWO FOLDER) to find the team to which you have been assigned for the group work in BSAD 301.fall2015BSAD301GroupsDB-4.docx
