Replies
Reply to one peers’ post by asking the peer one question about their identified culture as it relates to therapeutic communication. Please do not reply to a student that already has a reply post associated with it. All initial posts should receive one question from a peer. For example, you will reply to one peer and ask them a question as well as answer the question that was posed to you.
