A–01: Asynchronous Participation and Engagement

Students are to make at least three replies across any of the six open forums this week. Remember, the expectation is to read all of the posts. Your responses can include another student’s reply if you contribute something substantial to the discussion. Be sure to post on two separate days to show engagement. The following are the five forums this week:

• Assignment 04: Analysis of Activist Work on Social Media still isn’t due until Sunday of week 14 (04/23/23) at 11:55 PM, but I want to offer another opportunity for people to ask questions in the forum, Questions Regarding A-04 Social Media Assignment.
• Students have the opportunity to respond to material in the textbook, in the forum Chapter 13 Discussion Prompts.
• The reading this week focused on four specific practice models. Each of these have their own forum with targeted questions. The four forums are as follows:
  • Case Management Model
  • Empowerment Model
  • Crisis Intervention
  • Advocacy Model

Unit Resources
