Module 11 Prompt: What preconceived notions about people diagnosed with Schizophrenia might you have had before starting this module? How might Eleanor Langdon’s TED Talk have challenged some of those preconceived ideas? Note: If you would prefer, instead of focusing on Schizophrenia, you can give an example about another experience in the course that challenged your preconceived notions about another disorder.
Grading Criteria:
5 points for initial post
-You don’t need to write a dissertation, but create a substantive and professional initial post. A well-thought-out paragraph or two will suffice. Points will be deducted if you do not address all aspects of the prompt and/or if spelling and grammar issues are so numerous that they start to distract from the point you are trying to make. Late posts will get a score of zero unless you contacted me about an extension prior to the deadline.
-Again, you don’t need to write pages and pages, but create a meaningful and professional response to two of your classmates’ posts. If you disagree with a classmate, that is fine, but be courteous and respectful when making your point. You will lose points if you are unprofessional and/or if spelling and grammar issues are so numerous that they start to distract from the point you are trying to make. Late replies will get a score of zero unless you contacted me about an extension prior to the deadline.
