The Prompt:
Respond to the following prompt(s) for your discussion forum post:
- What happens during the receptive language period?
- What happens during the expressive language period?
- What does language allow a child to do?
- How does it affect thought and cognition?
Resources:
- Textbook
- PowerPoint Presentations
- Websites and Video located in the “Additional Resources” section of the Module
- Additional research conducted by the student using credible sources
You will be responsible for creating your own discussion thread (think of this as your response or statement regarding the discussion board topic/question) and for responding to at least two other students’ posts.
Responses to the discussion prompt(s) should be written in complete sentences and should contain references to relevant course material from the text and/or other sources within the module. You are expected to respond to each question in the discussion prompt(s) with a minimum of two paragraphs written in complete sentences with no grammatical and/or spelling errors. Additionally, each of those paragraphs must contain a minimum of five sentences . It is helpful to create your response within Microsoft Word to take advantage of spell check and then copy and paste it into the assignment to submit. Points will be deducted for spelling and/or grammar errors, use of abbreviated or “texting” language and failure to adequately respond to the question/topic.
Responses to the posts of other classmates should be a minimum of three sentences in length and address the information contained in the student’s original post, while also expanding on the concepts within the text and course material. When you respond to classmates, please be respectful of other view points and make sure that your response is thoughtful, insightful, and extends the content of the initial discussion question. Responses such as, “good job”, “I agree”, “I never thought of that,” etc. will not be counted as a productive response and will not receive any credit.
Responses to the discussion forum prompt should be of high quality and will be graded based on the following criteria:
