Module 4: Due Process and Juvenile 

Week 9 - DISCUSSION BOARD #9

Instructions:  These assignments need to be completed in the time allotted. Students will be required to post one (1) initial response to the posted activity/questions and AT LEAST TWO (2) supplemental responses based on another student's post. Your response to your classmate's posts should add to the discussion (i.e., reflecting on their response, asking questions, etc.). Students who fail to participate in the weekly discussions or respond that show they have not read and understood the material will not receive their participation mark for the week.  All responses should address the issues raised and not attack the student who raised the questions or arguments. Please ensure that your response is your own thoughts, using all assigned materials – don't rely on your personal opinion or only on quotes from the textbook.

The best way to improve your discussion-post scores is to reply to my comments and questions. You are expected to post high-quality messages (e.g., well-written, addressing multiple perspectives, citing sources, etc.) related to the discussion topic. Your grade for discussion boards will be based on both the quantity and quality of your contributions. In other words, I will keep track of how often you post meaningful, substantive contributions to class discussion. I will also consider whether your contributions demonstrate responsiveness to the reading assignments, my posts, and your classmates' posts.

Please post your initial discussion board response by 11:59 PM on Wednesday of the week the discussion opens. You must then log in throughout the rest of the period for the discussion activity and submit a minimum of two replies to your classmates' posts. Discussions will close by 11:59 PM on Sunday.

Discussion Board Activity:

Discuss your thoughts in light of the information presented in Chapter 9.
