Attendance
Consistent attendance is critical to the online learning environment. For this reason, you should log-on and participate (leave a note) at least 5 out of 7 days. Each week there are 40 possible attendance points. If you show up in the VC only 4 days in a week, you will receive 30 points; for three days attendance you will get 20 points. If in a week you log on and participate in class discussion for only one or two days attendance you will not receive attendance points that week.

Discussions
It is hoped that each learner will participate in all discussions. All discussions should be conducted with honesty, enthusiasm, kindness, critical thought and respect for the world views and beliefs of others

Grading Scale

    1. 240 points (40 pts per week) Attendance (4 out of 6" rule)
    2. 90 points (15 points per week) Scripture reading reactions
    3. 90 points (15 per week) Weekly essays
    4. 90 points (15 per week) Responses to other students' work
    5. 90 points (15 per week) Weekly 'what I learned" summaries
    6. 100 points Book Review
    7. 100 points Personal Testimony
    8. 100 points Mid-Term
    9. 100 points Final Exam

Here's how your final grade will be figured:

    A  - 901-1000 points
    B  - 801-900 points
    C – 701–800 points
    D – 601-700 points
    F – 600 points or below

Mid-Term will be comprehensive of units previously discussed and studied.

Two additional, important outcomes expected in the Philosophy of Evangelism Course of Study are:

1. The ability to communicate through written mediums with clarity and creativity

2. The ability to write clearly and in a grammatically correct manner.

Therefore, written assignments receiving full credit must reflect clear thinking and have correct grammar and accurate spelling.  This is not because I am "picky", it's because I want you to understand and convey the message of the gospel and be most effective in doing so.
