GRADING

評分

Attendance and participation (10 %)

A preaching class requires both speakers and listeners.  So it is vital to attend each class.  If a student must be absent, he or she must get class notes from another student.  One absence may be excused and will affect the final grade, deducting 10%.  More than one absence will result in failing the course.

Reading assignments and quizzes (30%)

There will be ten reading quizzes from the textbook.  The student is encouraged to raise questions about the material which is raised so that preaching issues may be discussed.

Preaching (60%)

The first sermon will be 5 minutes of a style and format of instructor’s directive.

The second sermon will be 10 minutes and will be a topical sermon.

The third sermon will be 25 minutes and will be an expository sermon.

The sermons will be graded by these factors:

Content – clear, well organized, true to the text, illustrative material and contemporary.

Delivery – desire, conviction, improvement, and connection with the audience.

出席率及參與程度(10%)

講道課需要演講者和聽眾。所以參加每一節課都很重要。如果一個學生必須缺席，他或她必須從另一個學生那裡得到課堂筆記。缺席一次將影響期末成績，扣減10%。超過一次缺課將導致課程不及格。

閱讀和測驗(30%)

課本上有10個閱讀測驗。鼓勵學生對所讀內容提出問題，以便討論講道的問題。

講道(60%)

第一次講道將以導師指示的方式和格式為藍本，5分鐘。

第二次講道將是10分鐘，是一個主題式講道。

第三講章為25分鐘，是一篇釋經講章。

講道將根據以下因素評分:

內容清晰，組織良好，真實的文本，材料合宜和配合當前處境。

傳達——渴望、信念、有否改善和與聽眾的聯系。
