• Grading Guidelines:
• No prescribed length.
• The criteria of (1) thoroughness, (2) adherence to test guidelines below, and (3) level of reflection will determine the grade.
• Each individual MUST work independently on this. This is not a group project! It's okay to discuss the issues with fellow classmates, but you must do your own work and draw you own conclusions.
• This is to be your reflection, not what you think mine is.
• The expectation is how well you understand NT theology up to this point, in light of the materials we have been studying in unit 1.
• Format:
• No prescribed format using a specified style guide such as Turabian; just the following:
• Just make sure the component elements called for in the test guidelines below are clearly displayed with your answer underneath.
• No title page!
• Staple sheets together; no folders or binders. They cost you money and waste my time in grading!
• Include the following at the top of the first page:
• Name
• Religion 314
• Exam 2
• Date Turned in
• Number the pages. Best done by turning on the page numbering command in your word processing software.
• Quoting published sources is permitted, but not required, so long as they are properly footnoted. If you quote sources, a bibliography should be attached. DON'T RISK PLAGIARISM! YOU HAVE TOO MUCH TO LOOSE!
• Test Guidelines:
• (1) Write out a detailed descriptive definition of your understanding of New Testament exegesis and hermeneutics, using the outline provided in topic 2.1.
