This is a graded discussion: 100 points possible due Sep 10 Unit 2 Discussion No unread replies. No replies. A discussion is a crucial avenue for learning about literature, experiencing an online classroom, and developing critical thinking skills. We will discuss the unit readings each week in a forum similar to this one. This discussion will focus on comparing gender roles in Susan Glaspells Trifles (2013) with gender roles in the 21st century. The play can be found at the following site: https://www.gutenberg.org/files/10623/10623-h/10623-h.htm#TRIFLES (Links to an external site.) Instructions: I have asked several questions below. In two separate initial posts, answer any two of my questions by Day 4. These initial posts should be thoughtful and complete, about 150 words each. Copy and paste the discussion question to which you are responding at the top of each initial response. Return to the forum on a second day this week read your peers posts. Respond to at least two of your peers. These posts should be substantive and add to the discussion. This could include asking a probing question or relating your own experience with whatever they’ve posted about initially. Response posts are due by day 7 of the unit. All discussion forum posts should be written in complete sentences in proper standard written English. Check posts for grammatical and spelling errors, maintain a professional and respectful tone, and answer the question thoroughly. Three (3) posts are required this week for full credit for this discussion. You should post on at least three separate days during the unit. Choose two of the following prompts: How do the men and women in Glaspell’s play (2004/2011) compare with the gender roles of men and women today? How have men and women changed in terms of their gender roles in the last 100 years? Do women today stand in solidarity with one another as they did in Trifles (Glaspell, 2004/2011)? Does society view men and women today as they were viewed in Glaspell’s play (2004/2011)? If you have any questions as you work, be sure to let me know! Reference Glaspell, S. (2016).
