Once you have read the assigned chapters for the week, answer the related discussion question below. Three posts are required for this week’s discussion. Your first post to should answer the assigned question and your next two posts (which are responses to other students’ or the instructor’s posts) should be done on two other separate days. You should post on at least three separate days throughout the week (one initial post plus two responses = three total). Back up the posts with factual information from the textbook, research, work/life experiences, etc.

I am looking forward to some great discussions!
