The pace in this class will vary: you will begin class by adding a document to your web site at CourseInfo. These writings should be completed outside class in preparation for discussion. After you have loaded your document onto your web site, you will be divided into groups to discuss your material. Discussion will be followed by class instruction. Your last hour in class will be spent exploring the Web. You have been provided a number of links designed to introduce you to the exciting world of Bible study on the Internet.
Performance Objectives:
1. Complete all readings prior to coming to class. Reading means exploring texts and all links.
2. Bring completed assignment to class. Bible exploration questions will be provided to you as assignments.. You must research appropriate materials, following suggestions provided in class; a completed assignment requires at least three single-spaced pages of writing. Since this class writings/research folder can receive up to 30 points of the total 100 class points, you will want to excel in both quality and quantity of writing. You will use the CourseInfo Digital Dropbox to store copies of your writing. You should also keep a hard copy folder up to date with the most recent writing always on top. Writings should have date, writing #, and topic heading. References used must be cited. Originality of thinking and depth of insight will figure prominently in the points awarded for the completed folder of writings. The writing is due at roll call; your first minutes in class will be spent posting this assignment. It's important that you work in Word on an IBM Disk. You may have to arrange time to work within one of the school labs.
3. Using the Web, construct a customized Bible study links guide. This guide must provide active links to annotated sites. Annotation is simply a clear description of what this site contains. Your links page must indicate a clear pattern of organization. You may choose, for example, to study the women of the Bible; the prophet(s), kings (s) or priest(s); to trace one theme (such as the rivalry between first- and second-born, barren women, a numbers symbolism such as forty, and so forth). This customized study links page can garner up to 30 points; guides will be ranked relative to other students' work. This guide can be created using Netscape Navigator.
