Discussion Assignment

For your first Discussion Assignment, you will write an ice-breaker statement. An ice-breaker
statement is one that introduces yourself to the class. This can be a few (two or three sentences) on
your own background and why you've decided to enroll into the UoPeople.
You are also responsible for replying with two or three sentences to three different students and
rating their main posts from 1 (poor) to 10 (excellent) in the Rate box provided.

Written Assignment

Why do you want to go to college? This is the main question for your Written Assignment. You will
write one paragraph (three or four sentences) on this topic.
This Written Assignment will be peer-assessed (next week), based upon the following criteria.
Please note, in your other courses, you will likely not be provided with Assessment Form criteria
before and during assignment submission periods.

1. Did the student answer the question? Please provide one or two sentences on why you think
the student did or did not answer the question. Is it a full (three or four-sentence) paragraph?

2. Is what the student submitted a full (three or four-sentence) paragraph? Are there spelling or
grammar issues?

3. Is this a mostly original work or did the student use cited source material? Note—if the student
used un-cited source material (as per APA style rules) then this is plagiarism.

4. Are there spelling or grammar issues? If the student has more than two errors, please point
out what a few of the more common errors are and how to fix them.

5. Is the paragraph a coherent structure that flows well? Please provide one or two sentences on
why you think the student's paragraph is or is not a coherent structure.

Learning Journal

For this Unit's Learning Journal, you will write a small two or three-sentence paragraph on your
expectations for this course. If you are stuck on what to say, just ask yourself the question, ‘What
would I teach in this course if I were an instructor?’
The Learning Journal is seen only by the instructor and will never be peer-reviewed by the other
students. This is your space to write directly and fulfill the assignments given for the Learning
Journal each week.
PS: Do not add your name anywhere in your submission. Either in the title, content or file uploaded.
Review that your name doesn't appear in the metadata of the document if you submit a Word file.
