Students should be self-motivated and need to understand that preparation for and participation in class are crucial to the health and learning of the course. Class preparation. A basic calculus is that for every hour in class students are expected to do at least 3 hours of reading/thinking/mulling and/or writing. It is considered average to read about 30 pages an hour. It depends on such factors as the content (dense or accessible), your comfort with the material and how fast you read. Class Rhythm. Housekeeping; clarifying the agenda; presentation (professor &/or student); discussion. Refer to Necessary Considerations in Theo-Ethical Method [see p. 4 below]. Legge reserves the right to claim the final 15 minutes for wrap up and looking ahead to next class. 2
3 Course Requirements Class Participation (5%) As an AD seminar, come to class having done the readings and thought about them. Study Tip: A good practice is to put one short question with page reference(s) to specific text(s). Keep track of what interests you, how you would answer the question. Also note any topical and/or textual connection(s) with other readings of the class. Keep track of aha s and really?!! responses -- to note and consider what concerns you and why you are interested. In terms of creating a collegial ethos in class, attentive and active listening (i.e., sharing air time), and constructive critical engagement of texts and one another are signs of respect and hospitality, both key practices of religious moral life. Another practice is raising critical and constructive questions rooted in texts which are the common resource pool. Written Work 1) Two class presentations (15 % x 2 = 30%) Choose one BEFORE reading week and ONE after. As per syllabus page 4, apply the five necessary methodological considerations to the texts. Conclude with one or two questions to prompt class discussion. [1500 words; with name, topic, date, numbered pages] Guidelines for Class Presentations: 15 minutes with a handout for the class A. These should not be summaries. Students should assume that everyone has done the reading. As you prepare, apply the Necessary Considerations in Theo-Ethical Method in this syllabus to underline the method. Pose 2-3 questions in relation to your text for class discussion. B. Prepare and bring a handout for the class on the day of your seminar: on one page, outline your presentation and give your questions for discussion. The instructor will co-moderate the discussion. 2) Book Review (25%). Due 3 November 2016 (8-10 pages, details to be discussed in class) 3) Major Paper (40%) 20 pages. On a topic germane to this course and your current academic work. Evaluation of Written Work [See Grading Scale in TST Advanced Degree Handbook] Overall clarity of your thinking, expression and organization. Content: research and critical engagement with texts, including demonstration of your comprehension of the author s points, your ability to present them fairly and to evaluate them. Your ability to state and justify your own position in dialogue with others; e.g., engage one point with which you agree and one with which you differ. Explain your reasons for your position. 3
4 EMT 5912 Necessary Considerations of Theo-Ethical Method A. Method (HOW to proceed; how is a theological/moral issue addressed, developed and justified/supported?) 1. Who is the author? What is their context and audience (stated or implied)? How does or might their experience shape their method and reading strategies? 2. What is the issue or problem being addressed? What is the thesis/main point? What is at stake and for whom? 3. How (method) does the author proceed to address the issue? Note the sources of authority (experience, scripture, tradition, reason) used and what norms are applied (whether explicit or implicit) to interpret the situation and to justify/guide action? 4. Cite the key arguments used to justify their position. What counts as religious, moral, and scientific knowledge? What critical or social theory is used in their theo-ethical analysis? How does it affect the handling of moral agency? a. What virtues (character traits) are named or presumed? (e.g., for Augustine the four cardinal virtues are temperance, fortitude, justice, prudence; others include, e.g., love, wisdom, sincerity, courage. Virtue ethics focuses on the character of the moral agent rather than the act of decision made.) b. What values (moral goods) are identified? What facts are declared and how are they tested (evidence cited)? c. What obligations or responsibilities (ground rules for life together) are named or assumed? d. What vision of the world is imagined or created? For whom? 5. What particular theological bases, outcomes and/or moral actions are proposed? B. Assessing a moral position by taking a stand How do you respond? Be clear about where you stand and why in terms of the author s content and method and what it illuminates and/or challenges. E.g., Are power/knowledge networks considered and/or illuminated? Is there room for heterogeneous voices and perspectives? Do you note any voices missing? Are there attempts to disrupt normalizing forces, so as to prevent closure on business as usual? Also, make some tangible connections with another text read so far in this course to keep dialogue moving. 4
