Q Thinking about M6-M7 terms/concepts about normativity, identities, and social structures, what are your thoughts about how folks in the U.S. do and are able to express their identities? Use examples from M6/7 module(s) material to explain your perspective. Aim to submit your original posts by Thursday. Responses to two peers must be submitted by Sunday, 11:59pm. Guidelines for discussion boards: The general guideline is, for each discussion, you will be expected to post one short (150 - 200 words) but substantial paragraph, and respond to (at least) two of your classmates’ posts with a substantial response (100-150 words). If you ONLY submit your post, then your maximum discussion grade will be 60% (D). If you respond to one other person's post, then your maximum discussion grade will be 70% (C). If you follow instructions and respond to two of your classmates' posts, your discussion grade will be raised from anywhere between 80% (B) to 100% (A). By substantial we mean that you say more than just “I agree/disagree” or “great point, etc”. You must explain yourself by referring back to the corresponding topic. NOTE ABOUT DISCUSSIONS: Discussions are NOT political/religious platforms. They are designed to demonstrate that you understand and can clearly and effectively articulate anthropological concepts and facts as they pertain to American Culture and Society. You may certainly incorporate outside reading material or anecdotal information provided it is relevant to the Topic. Only relay personal beliefs or opinions if prompted by assignment instructions.
