Each response should be researched using the course materials and/or outside sources, including in-text citations and references following APA formatting.

1,250-word count minimum with three scholarly sources in APA format.

The questions in Unit 1 are straightforward.

Q1 and Q2 can be answered fully using information from the course materials.

Q3 and Q4 will both be stronger with outside sources.

Q2, Q3, and Q4 each ask about your opinions and recommendations. As in the discussion, scoring will depend more on the evidence you provide to support your responses, rather than what your opinions and recommendations are. Q3 is nearly identical to the discussion post, so be sure to review the guidance for that, above.

Like the discussion, you will be asked for your opinion in some questions. Your opinions are important but scoring will depend more on the evidence you provide to support your opinions, rather than what your opinions are. Three sources are required, including the book. Word count and source requirements are in the course policies, located in the Unit 1 Course Materials
