Discussion-1 – Grader Comments

Here are the comments the grader made on the first discussion.

• From what I found, most students took the assignment seriously.  There were some really great posts about why they chose the major they chose.  And when people talked about the journal articles and what they found interesting and confusing their responses were serious and appropriate.  From what I could tell people found the readings worthwhile and really related it back to why they chose their major, and things they hadn't thought about in regards to their major. 
• The most common areas that students lost points was in the "most important" and "most confusing" categories.  I'd like to reiterate that each student should talk about what they found to be the most important and confusing things about both their primary and secondary articles.  If the article was straightforward and not confusing, simply state that. 
• The rest of my comments are minor.  Make sure to post your discussion reply under the thread that most closely relates to your major.  Also, take advantage of the "Preview" function associated with the discussion posts.  This way the post can look exactly as you want it to, in an organized fashion.  Finally, make sure to proofread your discussion before submitting it.
