  • Length: At least 400 words.

  • Sources: Must include at least 2 scholarly citations in APA format.

    • Acceptable sources: peer-reviewed journals, the course textbook, the Bible, and professional experience.

    • Sources must be published within the last 5 years (except for the Bible or course textbook).

  • Number: At least 2 replies to peers.

  • Length: At least 200 words each.

  • Sources: Each reply must use at least 2 scholarly citations in APA format.

  • Purpose: Expand on your classmates’ ideas, offer support or additional perspectives, or challenge ideas respectfully with evidence.


Formatting & Style

  • Use APA format for citations and references.

  • Write in a formal, academic tone (avoid slang, casual phrasing, or unsupported opinions).

  • Proofread for grammar and clarity.


✅ Tips for Success

  1. Start Early: Write your thread by Tuesday or Wednesday so you have time for editing and citing properly.

  2. Structure Clearly:

    • Introduction (state your main argument).

    • Body (support with evidence and scholarly citations).

    • Conclusion (summarize and connect back to the question).

  3. Engage in Replies: Instead of just agreeing, expand on peers’ posts by offering:

    • Real-world examples

    • Scripture applications (if appropriate)

    • Scholarly support

  4. Keep Citations Current: Use library databases (JSTOR, ProQuest, EBSCOhost) for up-to-date journal articles.

  5. Meet Word Counts: 400+ words for main post; 200+ for replies. Falling short loses points.
