    Discussion Board Instructions

    1.      In Weeks  1, 3, 5, & 7  – To begin your thread for a particular module, open the Key Terms document posted within each module, and select one of the key terms that interests you.

    2.      Declare your topic to the class by posting a new thread in the related DB forum and titling it with the key term you selected.  This reserves your topic so that other students cannot use it.  Each student must cover a different key term; no duplication of articles or key terms is allowed.

    3.      Conduct an Internet search to find and read at least 3 recent articles that relate to the key term you selected.  Articles may be found in the International section of any reputable website that focuses on international business, such as Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, or the Economist.  Another good source of information is EBSCOhost, accessible through Liberty’s online library.  Websites like about.com, britanica.com, Wikipedia etc. do not constitute scholarly academic articles and references.

    4.      Of the 3 articles you’ve read, select the article that you wish to discuss, and write a review of it.  In addition, you must post all 3 (or more) recent articles to the reference section—even though you review only one of them. You may provide additional references, but references do not replace 3 articles that relate to your key term. Actually reference the article you review within the article review. Your review must include the following sections (each section must be structured by a heading for each section):

      1. A definition of the key term: this does not count in the 200 word minimum requirement.

      2. A summary, in your own words, of the selected article.

      3. A discussion, in your own words, of how the article relates to the selected chapter and key term.

      5. The complete citation, in APA format, of each of the 3 articles read and any other additional references; these do not count in the 200-word requirement.

      6. All references must be annotated.

    Please also note that these references must be annotated in these posts. [This is a point students often miss.]

    Example of annotation. Please have your’s similar to this:

    A descriptive annotation summarizes the scope of the content of a work, whereas an evaluative annotation provides critical comment. You can do either or both. One or two sentences are fine. Annotations are usually in italics and are done within the reference list.

    Here’s an example:

    Reference:

    Miller, C. (2011, October 27). Dropbox bids to find entry in businesses. New York Times. Retrieved from http://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/28/technology/dropbox-aims-to-solidify-its-place-with-businesses.html?_r=1&adxnnl=1&adxnnlx=1319905671- 1SrurZu79yVHuXsAxjTWcA

    Annotation: The new Dropbox for Teams allows a company to create a “portal” for team members to access files for collaboration or sharing with increased security. This kind of communication technology saves time and effort required to share information between a company’s employees.
