Integrate Biblical principles within your discussion, not at the end, for both your personal thread and in all replies to peers. Take part in 3 Discussion Board Forums in which you will post a thread presenting your own opinion on the assigned topic, writing 400–500 words.
Post replies of 200–250 words each to 2 or more classmates’ threads. Each reply must be unique and must integrate ideas (and citations) from the required reading. Merely posting the same reply in 2 places is not sufficient and may be treated as a form of academic misconduct.
The original thread must incorporate ideas and citations from all of the required readings and presentations for that module/week. It must also address statecraft as part of a meaningful discussion of effective statesmanship.
