Time Management
Communication Standards for Grading Assignments As indicated below, “C” or 2.0 level work is considered average. Leaders are not average people. You are therefore expected (required) to put forth the effort necessary to demonstrate at least “B” (3.0) level work or higher on all assignments which you submit. Any which do not will be returned to you with input from your instructor on how you can raise your grade to the expected level. A course grade will not be given until your assignments demonstrate that you have understood the material presented in the course and allowed your life to be transformed by the Spirit and the Word studied — the requirements for attaining a “B”. Your individual assignments (tests, written assignments, etc.) will be graded according to the following standards. These grades will be averaged together to determine your course grade. ACU is training you as a leader and leaders are above-average people. Therefore, your work will reflect that. “A” • Grasped the material with thoroughness, industry and correctness of detail. • Made the material his own by thinking about it and integrating it, using originality, natural ability, and insight. “B” • Intelligently has fulfilled the requirements of this course. • Understands the subject matter presented and has applied it to his life in a limited manner but has not really made the truths his own. “C” • Average work; either steady work of an acceptable quality, or work of a high quality which is uneven, irregular or fragmentary. • May be mechanically or outwardly correct but shows little reflection upon or personal assimilation of the material. “D” • Indicates barely passing work that is inferior to the average both in quantity and in quality. • Manifests a lack of initiative or sense of responsibility or both.
