Module 3 discussion

Start by reading and following these instructions:

You are responsible for minimally at least 3 posts for each question in your discussion boards; your initial post and reply to two of your classmates. Your initial post(s) should be your response to the questions posed in the discussion question. You should research your answer and cite at least one scholarly source when appropriate, and always use quality writing. The discussion board is never a place to use text language or emoticons.

It is all right to disagree with something posted by another; however, your responses should always be thoughtful and respectful and reflect your opinions professionally.
