Review and respond, to at least two classmates’ posts. Avoid “I agree” statements, instead, look to add relevant contributions that add value to the discussion with your classmate. Your replies should read as responses and points of dialogue to each classmate. Be personal while bringing valid points of reference from the course material. Within your reply focus on these topics:
- How well does the classmate differentiate between empathy and agreement? Justify your response, and include recommendations for improvement, suggest additional insights or clarification.
- Evaluate the accuracy and clarity of the thinking-style pairs that your classmate developed and the logic of the consequence suggested. Response with suggestions for improvement, specific feedback regarding excellent details, details that would enhance his or her work, or contribute relevant insight from the course materials to add clarity.
