Discussions: Theoretical Approaches to Migration

You have learned a lot about different approaches to studying migration in this lesson and the readings. Compare and contrast two of the models that you learned about this week. Which of the approaches did you find most compelling or useful, and why?

Students will a) respond to the discussion prompt with one original response (250-350 words) and b) also respond to at least one original post from another student in a substantive manner (100-150 words- To be sent later). By substantive, I mean more than “I agree” or “that’s interesting.” I want you to elaborate: what do you agree with, and why? What specifically is interesting, and why do you think that?

Out of the 25 points possible for each Discussion, the original post is worth a total of 15 points, and the response is worth a total of 10 points.
