  7. The Discussion Board (DB) is an academic discussion. As such, postings (including initial andresponse postings) are expected to be substantial, to reflect application of relevant coursecontent, and to be supported with evidence from credible sources.The following guidelines should be followed unless the instructions for a particular DBspecifically indicate otherwise:
  8. One initial posting and 2 response postings are required, as a minimum, for each

    9. discussion forum/board. Posts must be completed on at least two separate days.

  9. Original posts should consist of at least 150 words (unless the assignment instructions are

    10. different). Try not to exceed 300 words; however, no points will be deducted for longer

    postings.

  10. Response postings should consist of at least 75 words. Try not to exceed 300 words;

    11. however, no points will be deducted for longer postings.

  11. Timeliness is essential in the online discussion environment in terms of encouraging and

    12. facilitating the exchange and development of ideas among members of the discussion

    group. Nightingale Colleges academic week runs from Monday at 12:00 am Mountain

    Time (MT) to Sunday at 11:59 pm MT. All assignments for the week are due within the

    academic week in which they are assigned, unless otherwise specified. Accordingly,

    o Initial postings should be posted no later than Wednesday at 11:59 PM MT.

    o The required response postings must be posted no later than Sunday at 11:59 PM

    MT.

    o The DB will officially close at 11:59 PM MT on Sunday and response postings

    will not earn credit after this time.

    formatted in a manner generally consistent with APA guidelines; however,

    no points will be deducted for variations in line spacing and or indentation

    (including “hanging” position for the first line of each entry).

    To avoid loss of content while your posting is under development, you

    may wish to develop your postings in a MS Word document and then cut

    and paste them into the DB. Please do not present your discussion

    posting in the form of a MS Word document attachment.
