ASSIGNMENTS AND GRADING

(ATA recommends that an MDiv student should write a minimum of 2500 words during the study of a subject).

Formative Assessment

A. Discussion Forum – 25% weightage.

Weekly Discussions and Written Responses: 200 words for Initial Response and 100 peer responses.

Every Wednesday a weekly discussion question will become visible. Each student will read through the question and take time to formulate a response. The aim for responses is to display a thorough understanding of daily video lessons, reading material, or even a selected multimedia content and relate it practically to life and ministry situations.  The initial response should be 200 words to answer the questions and then each student should respond (100 words) to the submitted response of other students posted on the Discussion board. To maximize the benefit of this element of the course, the student should post his/her initial response by 11:59 pm on Wednesday of the week and then spend the remainder of that week interacting with their colleagues in the class until Saturday at 11:59 pm.

B. Quiz (weekly or daily quiz) 20% weightage.

A self-assessment quiz that consists of multiple-choice, true/false questions, short answers, text with feedback. Note that quizzes are used for self-assessment and not formal exams – so formative. These quizzes are based on video lectures, reading assignments, multimedia content, etc.

C. Short Essays: 15% weightage. (500-800 words)

There are short academic essays that allow students to collaborate and use resources to answer the given question. Short Assignments are due at the end of the third week.

D. Essay/Research Paper: 40% weightage. (1000-1200 Words)

This paper should be approximately 5 pages. Write an essay/research paper that directly engages with one of the issues, themes, events, or people encountered in the course using secondary sources. In other words, research is required for this paper. The paper must be transparent, meaning that you will clearly state what your primary and secondary sources are, and how you have gone about turning them into “data” for your argument.

You need to demonstrate familiarity with the specifics and details of the issues, themes, events, or people you selected, as well as demonstrate your ability to place your topic within the larger context of Christian history. The paper should not simply report, summarize, or review materials, but demonstrate thoughtful analysis and reflection and embody an argument (thesis), which will be a summary of the paper’s argument, early in the introduction. The body of the paper will support your thesis. Show how your argument is drawn from the primary and secondary sources you used by carefully documenting it.

GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR THE SUBMISSION OF WRITTEN WORK

Submission Method and Late Submission

Submission: Papers to be submitted electronically in .doc or .docx format by Global Classroom– Assignment Upload

Late Submission Penalties:

  1. Weekly Responses and Primary Source Analysis Paper will NOT be accepted as late.
  2. Late submission of all other assignments, with a genuine reason, will be penalized 1% (1 point) per day. The student needs to get the prior written permission of the instructor, copying the same to the Registrar. A maximum of three days would be permitted by the instructor, for a late submission.

Citing References

In all assigned work, proper style guidelines must be used and followed exactly; failure to do so will render the submitted assignment unacceptable.

For proper citation style, consult the FBC Style Guide or the full edition of the MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers: Seventh Edition, especially chapters 5 and 6 for the arrangement of entries through in-text citations and Works Cited.

Academic Integrity

Integrity in academic work is required of all our students. Academic dishonesty is any breach of this integrity and includes such practices as cheating (the use of unauthorized material on tests and examinations), submitting the same work for different classes without permission of the instructors; using false information (including false references to secondary sources) in an assignment; improper or unacknowledged collaboration with other students, and plagiarism.

FBC takes seriously its responsibility to uphold academic integrity and to penalize academic dishonesty. 

ASSIGNMENTS

Note: Each Quiz carries 10 points (Total 100 points – 20% Weightage). There is one short essay of 15 points (15% Weightage). Each Week Discussion carries 5 points (Total 25 Points – 25% Weightage). All of these daily and Weekly assessment tasks will contribute towards the 60% of Internal Assessment. 

The Final assignment carries 40 points (40% Weightage) and will contribute towards the 40% of External Assessments.
