Participate in an asynchronous discussion by responding to the Seminar Discussion topics, and posting your response in the Seminar thread in the left navigation bar. Your response to the Seminar Discussion topics should total 200 to 250 words.

You are only required to complete the Seminar Discussion topics IF you are unable to attend the Seminar for that unit. When responding to the Seminar Discussion Boards, you will want to provide thorough responses; incorporate a minimum of 200 – 250 words in your response. You are not expected to respond to classmates for the Seminar Discussion topics.
