Description

the form of an essay will be 500–700 words and will follow current APA guidelines in format (as much as is possible in a discussion board setting) and in citations. No title page, running head, or abstract page is needed, and references can be listed right below each post.

Question: One example of an unethical activity is bribery. Explain what it is, how common the practice is, and where it is found. Justify your reasoning with a minimum of 2 scholarly references. (ch. 4)

Superior work in all areas. Expectations are consistently exceeded in all areas regarding

content, analysis, synthesis, evaluation of topics, participation, timeliness, and writing style.

Content:

• Focuses on specific information based on the answer to the selected question and is answered in specific and clear ways, with much personal and professional application.
•  Provides more than the required number and type of references asked for within the question.

• Advances the discussion in a way that contributes to the learning of the participants (provides new ideas and insights, asks probing questions that get to the heart of critical issues, and shares from personal and professional experience). Interaction/Replies:
•  Research & Analysis: The replies build upon the key ideas of the threads to which the student is responding and make new contributions with new research and analysis. Rather than merely asking questions of his/her classmates or restating what his/her classmates have said, the student advances the conversation with new ideas and research. This new research and analysis are also different from the research and analysis were done in the student’s own thread.
•  Connectivity: In providing this new research and analysis, the student clearly demonstrates connectivity to key points from his/her classmates’ threads, so that the student’s replies read like a true dialogue of ideas and not just another thread.
•  Replies to a minimum of 3 different classmates.

Threads include citations from 2 scholarly sources and 1 of either the audio
PointeCast presentation or video presentation assigned to the unit being discussed.
 Replies include citations from 1 scholarly source, 1 relevant business article, and 1 of
either the audio PointeCast presentation or video presentation assigned to the unit
being discussed.
Length: Threads are 500–700 words; replies are 200–300 words each.
Grammar/Current APA: Contains minimal to nonexistent grammatical and APA errors.
