While sharing your academic work with your peers can sometimes be intimidating, the feedback that you will receive may help you find new perspectives and refine your ideas and arguments. Similarly, the practice of offering feedback to others can inspire you to think about your own project in a new way. This week, you will share and critique with your peers in a progress-specific Discussion, depending on the Dissertation Milestone where you are currently working.

Example: If you are working on Chapter 1, to begin the class Discussion, please post a copy of your Problem Statement and provide information as to what specific feedback you want to receive from your colleagues. Your Problem Statement should be at least 250 words and must include two paragraphs identifying the general problem and the specific problem. Include citations referring to supporting evidence.
