Unit 3: Discussion 1
.
This unit deals with
stress, how we 'handle' it and how it affects us. As you participate in
the discussion threads, think about ways to effectively communicate with others
to not only get your point across but to avoid adding stress to the particular
situation. There are two discussion threads.
You are required to
post your initial answers by midnight Wednesday; your comments on the postings
of your classmates are due on Sunday at midnight. Please be sure that
your comments to peers are substantive; do not simply write "I
disagree"; if you disagree, go on to explain your comment and add your own
insights. All initial and follow-up responses require research and
appropriate citations. You should have a minimum of two postings (one
initial and one/more follow-up response/s) for each thread.
The following rubric
will be used to score your discussion postings:
1-3
points |
Only
minimal response given with no elaboration OR failed to complete follow-up
postings |
4-7
points |
Basic
response and follow-up posting; all were clear and relevant, but needed more
detail. |
8-10
points |
All
responses were elaborated, clear, and detailed; complete responses and
follow-up postings. |
Stress is simply a
fact of nature. The individual responds to stress in ways that affect the
individual as well as their environment.Because of the overabundance of stress
in our modern lives, we usually think of stress as a negative experience, but
from a biological point of view, stress can be a neutral, negative, or positive
experience.
·
Using your book or
another source, define what constitutes stress.
·
What are your particular stress factors (=stressors)
and how do you cope with each?
·
Respond to at least one classmate with some suggestions on
how they might deal with their stress factors.
Remember to correctly
cite any source you use and if you use direct quotes, use them sparingly and
include quotation marks!
