ISNB
2 COURSE EVALUATION Weekly Assignments (35%): After completing the weekly assigned reading, the student shall select one chapter and submit a summary at the beginning of the class period. Each assignment is worth 7% of your grade. Each summary will be 2-3 pages, (typed) with one-inch margins all around, using the 12 point font. The conclusion shall include a personal application touch. Please note: The first assignment is due on the first day of class!!! Research Paper (30%): The paper must deal with a theological issue approved by the instructor. Late papers, without prior permission from the instructor, will not be accepted after the final day of the semester. For an early start on the research paper, please refer to the list of suggested topics provided on the page of this syllabus. Each topic has strong arguments on both sides and you must consider both sides before you come to a conclusion. Your paper will be evaluated both on the basis of how well you argue for your own position and also on the basis of how fair you are to the other side. The paper must be typed in 12 point font, double-spaced, with one inch margins and must be between 2000 and 2500 words (10 pages) in length (not including endnotes and bibliography). It must include a bibliography of scholarly sources and footnotes done according to the traditional (Turabian) format. See Hacker, A Canadian Writer s Reference. Also see the Tyndale Essay Documentation & Formatting Guide. Quiz (15%): A one (1) hour quiz will be taken in class on the last day of the module. In preparation for this quiz, students are responsible for reading all the assigned sections of Erickson s book on their own and are advised to make study notes on the text. This quiz will cover both the textbook and lectures and will consist of definitions and short essay questions. A list of key terms will be given in class throughout the course. Class Mark (10%): This portion of the grade will be based on attendance, class participation and the general effort put forth by the student. Attendance will be taken at the beginning and end of each class and students will lose marks for each unexcused absence. Students who must miss a class for an unavoidable reason must communicate the reason to the professor by either or voic prior to the class, if at all possible. If the reason is not considered sufficient to miss a class, the absence will be considered unexcused. Normally, absences are excused only in cases where the student had no choice in missing the class, such as attending a funeral or being sick in bed. Non-emergency doctor/dentist appointments, work schedules, etc. should not be scheduled in conflict with classes and absences resulting from them generally are not excused. Assigned Reading (10%): On the last day of class you will be asked to indicate what percentage of the assigned reading you would have completed. This is an honest question that will require an honest answer from a growing (maturing) disciple of Jesus Christ those who have ears, let them hear 2

7 Tyndale University College & Seminary RLGS 3603 Introduction to Christian Theology Instructor: Rev. Dr. Francis Mpindu, PhD ~ Suggested Research Topics ~ Each topic has strong arguments on both sides and you must consider both sides before you come to a conclusion. Your research paper will be evaluated on the basis of (a) how well you argue for your position, and (b) how well you integrate opposing views. However, you must argue your point biblically and theologically - taking account of various interpretations of key Scripture texts and the theological argumentation on the issue. You are expected to include a personal touch or application in the conclusion, especially how the findings relate to your life or ministry as a disciple of Jesus Christ. This research paper must deal with a theological issue approved by the professor, and is due on the last day of class. The paper must be typed in 12 point font, double-spaced, with one inch margins and must be between 2000 and 2500 words (10 pages) in length (not including footnotes and bibliography). It must include a bibliography of at least 5 scholarly sources according to the traditional research paper format (MLA, Turabian, etc). No more than 1 Internet sources may be included in the 8 sources used and there must be at least one scholarly journal article. Below are some suggested topics. You may also select another topic of your choice but I must approve the topic. The earlier you begin your research paper the better your paper is likely to be. Remember, we have very limited time (ONLY 5 weeks). - Can One Be Saved Through General Revelation? - Proving the Existence of God: Logical Necessity or a Matter of Faith? - Does the Doctrine of the Inspiration of Scripture Demand the Doctrine of Inerrancy? - Biological Evolution and the Christian Doctrine of Creation: Are They Compatible? - Does the Bible (as a whole) Teach Male Headship in Marriage? - Has the Fall Rendered Human Beings Incapable of Responding to God s Grace? - The Problem of Evil: Does It Make Belief in God Impossible? - The Holiness Debate: Entire Sanctification versus Progressive Sanctification - Does Sanctification Always Involve Speaking in Tongues? - Do Human Beings Have Free Will, and If So, What Is Free Will? - The Mission of the Church: Evangelism Only or Evangelism Plus Social Action? - Do All Religions Lead to God? - Is Divorce Ever Justifiable For a Christian? - Civil Disobedience: Is It Justifiable? - You Shall Not Kill: What Does That Mean? - Bribery: Is It Always Wrong? - Racism: Can It Be Eliminated? - Church: Is It Really a Picture of Heaven? - Other topic suggestions must be approved by the instructor 7
