Week 5 Discussion

PROMPT B: Everyone answers this prompt. If your initial post is late you receive no credit.

• Question #1 Who gets left out of most historical narratives and why? Explain.
• Question #2 Does this mean, in your opinion, that history is not the same as truth? Explain your answer.

EACH WEEK:

Deadlines: By Thursday at midnight, post a response/reaction to the question posed. Start your own thread and, title it “Your Name Main Post” so Kim Chester’s would say, “Kim Chester Main Post.”

Read and reflect on your colleagues responses.

By Sunday at midnight, click “reply” to at least two of your colleagues postings in one or more of the following suggested ways:

1. Ask a probing or clarifying question.
2. Share an insight from having read your colleagues posting.
3. Offer, support, or challenge a position
4. Validate an idea with your own experience.
5. Expand on your colleagues posting.
6. Ask for evidence that supports the posting.

Main posts and responses should include references as appropriate. There are no one or two sentence posts in this course. Avoid piggy-back responses. The responses to fellow students should be as thoughtful and substantive as your main post
