Texas government … Discussion bored homework and post response homework | Online Homework Aiders

Can you help me understand this Political Science question?

Texas government and the national government share many structural similarities. However, there are some very unique differences between them. One of the reasons is because Texas developed many more constitutions than the national government did – and those constitutions were influenced by Texas’ relationship with the other nations that at one point ruled over Texas. As Texas joined the United States, and then the Confederacy, and then the Union, again, there were revisions of the Texas Constitution. The Texas Constitution of today was authored in 1876, has been amended 507 times, and is the second longest state constitution in the United States.

Tips From https://www.unr.edu/Documents/liberal-arts/writing-center/Creating%20a%20Successful%20Discussion%20Board%20Thread.pdf

• Strive to always bring up new, interesting comments. There is no point reiterating a remark that has already been made. You should always try to further the discussion—be provocative! Even if you have a similar opinion as the previous respondent, bring up an additional example or resource. The second poster in the above example includes many comments for the next student—or even the previous poster—to agree or disagree with.
• Good discussion threads should be substantial but concise: convey only the information that is most meaningful and accessible to your classmates. Make sure to always re-read your response! A good habit is to copy and paste your thread into a Word document prior to posing to check for errors in spelling and grammar.
• Don’t just state that you agree or disagree with the poster—make sure you offer an inventive reason why (avoid things like “You go girl, I totally agree!”) Always be professional and respectful to your classmates and avoid ad hominem attacks (criticism against the person, not his/her comments.)

You must start a thread before you can read and reply to other threads
