Submitting
a discussion post
Introductions. Write a post introducing yourself to your classmates. You should tell us something about yourself: who you are, where you are from, what your hobbies are, what you're thinking of majoring in. Additionally, you must include one interesting or memorable fact about yourself.
Please note: while this is a required assignment, there is not formal grading of the discussion posts in this course. A rubric has been provided to assist with self and peer evaluation.
