Grading Rubric for Online Discussions-400 Level Courses
The purpose of online discussions is to develop an engaging scholarly conversation between faculty and students that is relevant to the topics and related concepts each week. Successful interactive online dialogue is dependent on the following:
NSG 400 level courses:
❖ Alternatives to weekly discussion posts cannot be granted. Students are required to post responses to discussion board questions during all online class weeks.
❖ Student participation is monitored by course faculty in the distance education classroom, according to the criteria outlined in the Grading Rubric for Online Discussions-400Level Courses.
❖ Each course adheres to the online academic week, which is the period between 12:01 AM ET Monday morning through 11:59 PM ET Saturday.
❖ Discussion posts placed on D2L prior to Monday morning at 12:01 AM ET are not graded.
❖ The initial discussion response is posted by 11:59 PM ET on Thursday of each week, so all students have the opportunity to interact with other students and course faculty. Each question posted in the weekly discussion area should have an initialresponse.
❖ Students post a minimum of one response to a classmate or faculty discussion post by Saturday at 11:59 PM ET. The initial discussion post and discussion response occur on two different calendar days of each electronic week. Students are encouraged to respond to more than just the 1 required post to promote an engaging classroom experience. Each question posted in the weekly discussion area should have a response.
❖ Initial discussion responses and responses to other required student posts should be a minimum of 250 words, scholarly written, APA formatted, and referenced. A minimum of 2 references are required (one may be the course textbook).
❖ Required discussion board responses are developed using appropriate peer reviewed scholarly resources, scholarly writing, and include APA style citations and references. The in text citations and references should match in the discussion posts as per APA style. Peer reviewed scholarly resources should be no more than 5 years old, but this can change based upon your topic. Scholarly sources include, for example, professional, peer reviewed publications or reports from resources such as CDC, IOM, AACN, etc. These should be written by professionals and scholars in the field. Websites are only scholarly, if written by professionals and experts in the area. Wikipedia is not a scholarly source,for example. A web site such as Medscape, CDC, and TIGER Initiative are examples of scholarly sources. If you have any questions on scholarly sources please check with the course instructor.
