Social Justice

Description

Describe some of the ways that some of the six forms of cultural wealth that Tara Yosso discusses in her article are manifested or have been manifested in your own personal lives.

In your response to one of your peers, compare and contrast (find similarities and differences) some of those experiences.

Refer to the Discussion Rubric to clarify how you can earn the highest number of points for your original post and response posts.

Instructions for Discussions:

Original Post: The goal of the original post is to answer the discussion question fully, bringing perspectives from the assigned reading, your own experiences and your own analysis. There is a 200-word minimum length for your original post. For your quotes and citations from the textbook, include the author and page number (e.g., Rothenberg, p. 52).

Response Posts: The goal of response posts is to further the discussion with questions or statements that expand upon ideas in the original post and encourage others to respond in kind. Use your critical thinking skills. Responding with comments such as “I agree” or “Huh?” fail to meet the goal of continuing or enlarging the discussion. You must respond to another student’s original post with 100 words minimum.
