Summarize two different post seperately.
For each discussion activity, you are responsible for posting a reply to at least two other postings made by your classmates.
Your initial substantive posting should be a thoughtful reflection on at least one aspect of the discussion theme or question posed and can either initiate a line of discussion or be in response to someone else’s posting (i.e., adding your own perspective or additional research to it). Keep in mind that quality is better than quantity and “me too” and “I agree” type postings add little to the conversation. Your postings should demonstrate that you have read and thought about the course material. You are encouraged to reference your course textbook in your postings as well as other relevant outside literature.
Some points to keep in mind:
- Be clear and to the point in your postings.
- Edit your work. Your posts should be coherent and use proper grammar and spelling.
- Keep postings to 300-350 words. Quality is better than quantity.
- Contribute your own thoughts about the material you have read.
- Support your thoughts by referencing the textbook or other outside literature.
- Raise additional questions or points of discussion to stimulate further discussion.
- If you have questions, show that you have already tried to find a solution.
- Respect the viewpoints of your peers. Ask for clarification if you don’t understand a point. Assume good intentions.
- Use the proper terminology introduced in the course readings.
- When using literature in your postings, make sure to provide references in proper APA Style.
- Show respect and sensitivity to peers’ gender, cultural and linguistic background, political, and religious beliefs.
You are strongly encouraged to take the time to review the following documents on writing quality discussion posting and on taking roles in discussions.
Taking a role in online discussion.
Taking a Role in Online Discussions
Below are some roles that anyone in an online discussion can fulfill in order to help move an
online discussion forward in productive ways. See if you can determine what role is required in
your online discussion and then write a message that takes on that role.
Devil’s Advocate
• Takes opposing points of view to those currently under discussion
Pollinator
• Travels to other groups, reads their postings and summarizes points made in other groups not
made in home group.
Facilitator
• Comments on the groups process (e.g. “Perhaps we should all remember to put a subject line
in our messages.”)
• Encourages others to participate,
• Starts a thread or an idea on the topic, if the discussion lags.
Summarizer / Discussion Weaver
• Summarizes the discussion for the group at specific intervals in 1 or 2 short paragraphs.
Usually summarizes twice per week or if the discussion lags
• Reminds others about what has already been discussed.
• Asks the group what issues have been concluded and what ones are still to be discussed.
• Relates ideas in posted messages to one another.
Researcher
• Assumes responsibility for looking at what is available on the net, journals etc. and brings
ideas back to the group.
Responder

must perform for every discussion.
Post1
My name is Fikayo, and I am a Nigerian-trained lawyer who has transitioned into HR. I was raised in a family of 6, and my upbringing has been an exciting blend of tradition, adventure, and ambition.
I am ambitious, think fast on my feet, especially in crises, and always strive to be the best I can be. Growing up in a family that cherished education and exposure, I developed a thirst for knowledge and experiences from a young age, hence my decision to study law. When I was young, when asked why I wanted to be a lawyer, I would usually respond with “to defend those who cannot defend themselves” or “because the law is a prestigious profession.”
The person I am today has been profoundly influenced by a combination of factors – the nurturing environment provided by my family, the Nigerian culture of community, respect for elders and interdependence.
These values guide my interactions with others and serve as a compass for navigating life’s challenges. Although a huge part of the culture I grew up with that I still struggle to balance is respecting my own individuality in the midst of cultural expectations.

As I sit down to write this post, I find this discussion topic to be rather difficult. It truly forces one to be introspective, something that I realize I do not do very often. Initially, what came to mind is that I am a woman and a wife. However, this saddened me because I am much more than just my gender and marital status. Having lived through the traumatic experience of having an alcoholic father, it truly shaped me into the person I am today. Knowing I did not want a life like his, I worked hard to become a Dental Hygienist and am now finishing my degree at the University of Guelph. Although growing up in this household was difficult, it allowed me to develop the self-concept traits of being hardworking, patient, and adaptable.
Some positive self-illusions I often demonstrate are the self-serving beliefs of unrealistic optimism and perceived control. Unsurprisingly, negative experiences were frequent in my childhood, and I lived through them. I often find myself believing that things aren’t really as bad as they could be, and because I lived through such negative experiences, only positive experiences are more likely to occur now. Similarly, growing up in a household of unpredictability caused me to create a need for control. I often find myself believing I can control the uncontrollable and create a predictable outcome.
I grew up in a Polish household, and perhaps as a child, I would define myself as being Polish and embracing the traditions that come with the heritage. But now that I am older, and my parents are deceased, I am no longer surrounded by much Polish culture. Instead, I would say that my values are influenced by Canadian culture, and thus, I have a more independent self-construal when it comes to my cultural influences
