TOPIC THREE Week 3 It is time to improve the content of your discussion posts team! Start thinking carefully about quality content and feedback.

TOPIC FOUR, Week 4 So far so good. Time to put your BLACK HAT on (Critical Thinking) for this weeks topic.

TOPIC FIVE, Week 5 Please remember your online etiquette that we talked about at school. At all times write as though you were speaking at school. Be careful of your use of language and influence. I look forward to your thoughtful contributions.

TOPIC SIX, Week 6 Again I am very impressed with the level of feedback posts and the content in most of the posts. Keep referring to other's posts before you post your response. All the best.

TOPIC SEVEN, Week 8 Time to get back into your debating and discussions. I stress now however that if I spot a spelling mistake in your discussions online, you will be writing those words out on FRIDAY - 10 x your year level - up to 5 mistakes. This is just to challenge you to proofread and edit before you POST your input.

TOPIC EIGHT, Week 9 FINAL WEEK Well it's that time of the year again and we are down to our last discussion of the year. Well done to those who have persevered through the full eight weeks of homework. You will have gained a rich blessing I am sure - both in the skill of writing and also in the skill of reasoning. I look foward to your posts this final week of Homework.
