To promote strategies for academic success, course instructors explain the requirements for successful participation in an online curriculum and the rules of academic integrity. They help students explore the resources available at the Walden University Library, the Writing Center, and other Walden services. By gaining practice in scholarly writing and critical thinking through course discussions and assignments, students have the opportunity to relate Walden's mission and vision to their professional goals and build a foundation for future success as scholar-practitioners.
