Discussion Guidelines:

Your initial post in each discussion, answering the week’s discussion questions, is due by 11:55 PM ET on Wednesday each week.

Initial responses should be no less than 250 words of your own writing (not including your reference list.

Do not include my questions or discussion prompts in your post. You may number your answers, but your post should contain only your own original writing (the 250-word minimum is based only on your words in the post.).

Write in complete sentences and full paragraphs and avoid using lists of any kind in your posts.

Your initial post must be original in content and demonstrate a thorough analysis of the topic.

Include your own personal experience related to the topic being discussed. If you do not have experience working with information systems, describe your experience with various information systems, including web-based systems, you use in your personal life.

You should also conduct research on the topic of discussion using outside sources, in addition to your textbook, each week. You are encouraged to use the APUS Online Library to find scholarly articles related to the topics of discussion. You may also use the Internet to search for information, but make sure you only use scholarly and authoritative sources (not Wikipedia or other similar sites.

Write in your own words and avoid copying and pasting from other websites).

If you do quote from a source, keep quotations to a minimum – I would rather see you express your own understanding of what you learned from your sources, in your own words.

Each answer should be a minimum of 2 double-spaced pages.

1] “Seeing is believing,” we’re sometimes told. Consider the problems of evidence in Shakespeare’s plays. Characters often come to strong conclusions about the beliefs, feelings, or actions of other characters, but on what basis? Take two of the plays we’ve studied and show how one (or more) of the characters in each comes to believe what s/he does. What does s/he want to know? Why? What steps lead him/her to certainty? In the end, should s/he believe what s/he does? What does Shakespeare seem to be implying about the search for truth?

2] Love would seem to be a human universal, but is it? Early modern people had some ideas on it that we don’t share, and Shakespeare, clearly, had a few ideas of his own. Take a couple from each of two of the plays we studied and show how this playwright portrays the love between them. What causes this love? What problems does it run into? Can those problems be resolved? Show how, from a modern point of view, this love does seem “real,” or how it doesn’t, or both.

This assignment must be completed to earn this Week’s Lab points. The original document is a PDF, so you cannot put your answers directly on it–so therefore, put the answers on a different document, then convert to a PDF or MS Word before submitting.

Write a RACE response to this question. Be sure to cite at least one of the assigned texts this semester. You can explain your choices by citing expert advice in the texts and your own personal experiences and observations.
