Seminar W2 Discussion

Before beginning work on this week’s discussion post, review the following resources:

Doing Discussion Questions Right
Expanded Grading Rubric
From the assigned readings, select one topic for which you will lead the discussion in the forum this week. Early in the week, reserve your selected topic by posting your response (reservation post) to the Discussion Area, identifying your topic in the subject line. By the due date assigned, research your topic and start a scholarly conversation as you respond with your initial or primary post to your own reservation post.
Some of the main team topics of this week are the following:

Team leadership
Team diversity
Collaborative culture
Team boundaries
Team expectations
Member accountability
Other potential topics and subtopics exist in the readings.
Be very specific with the topic you choose. (For example, which leadership theories or what is it about collaborative culture that you are analyzing?)
As the beginning of a scholarly conversation, your initial post should be:

Succinct—no more than 500 words.
Provocative—use concepts and combinations of concepts from the readings to propose relationships, causes, and/or consequences that inspire others to engage (inquire, learn). In other words, take a scholarly stand.
Supported—scholarly conversations are more than opinions. Ideas, statements, and conclusions are supported by clear research and citations from course materials as well as other credible, peer-reviewed resources.
