PART ONE: For your post this week, you will start planning Essay Two: Expository Essay on the topic of bullying. Follow the link/title above and post a 200-250 word thread (your initial post) before Friday at 8:00 a.m. CT in the Week 6 Discussion Board. Label your thread with your last name.
In your thread, share your thoughts on at least two of the following discussion topics related to the essay and bullying:
How do you think the author’s background influences his position? What factors might influence someone’s position (perhaps, including your own)?
Whose responsibility is it to address the problem of bullying? Why?
The media make sure that we always have something to worry about. How would you respond to this claim?
Some schools and businesses have programs in place to address issues like bullying. Do you have any experience with such a program, and if so, how effective has it been?
