Reading Assignments Students are required to read assigned portions from Turabian and the DTS Turabian Supplement. In addition to this, a scan reading of Strunk and White will be required for awareness of content and future reference. Students must report their completed reading on the date listed on the assignment schedule using the Reading Report for the course. The Reading Report is available for download on CampusNet under Class Schedule / Course Materials. B. Written Assignments These written assignments are intended to be more illustrative than work-intensive. 1) Bibliography Form Assignment. Due class session 4 according to the assignment schedule. Each student is required to submit a bibliography of ten entries arranged in proper form according to Turabian bibliography style (Turabian, chapters 15-17). These must be taken from the ten sample title pages provided to you on a class handout. Except for your personal information at the top (name, box number, and course section), your assignment should look exactly like the bibliography page for a course paper in which you have used these ten sources (e.g., page heading and numbering, alphabetical arrangement of entries, paragraph and indent style, margins and spacing, and form and punctuation of the entries). 2) Library Assignments. Due class sessions 5 and 6 according to the assignment schedule. The two library assignments are to be completed using the BIBLOS and ATLA systems in Turpin Library or via the internet ( The first assignment should be completed, printed out, and brought to class for discussion in session 5. The second assignment should be completed, printed out, and brought to class for discussion during session 6.
3 RS101 Orientation and Research Methods 3 3) Formatted Research Paper Assignment. Due last class session according to the assignment schedule. Each student is required to submit a mock research paper (to be described in class). The paper will be graded on form not content. It must be formatted according to Turabian style with ten footnotes and bibliography entries taken from title pages of source material that will be given out in class (already used for the Bibliography Form Assignment). The paper should evidence the use of Turabian, the DTS Turabian template, and the DTS Supplement. Fifty percent of the research paper grade will be based on page and layout matters: title page; headings and subheadings to at least three levels; margins, spacing and indentation including one section of block quotation; page numbers, footnote placement; and bibliography page layout. Fifty percent of the grade will be based on correct footnote and bibliographic form (be sure to make corrections as necessary from your Bibliography assignment). C. Quizzes and/or Exams There are no quizzes or examinations in this course. Informal question and answer sessions will take place in class, but these do not contribute to the final grade. V. COURSE POLICIES A. Letter/Numerical Grade Scale A B C D F A B C D A B C D B. Weighing of Course Requirements for Grading Bibliography Form Assignment... 15% Library Assignment # % Library Assignment # % Formatted Research Paper... 40% Readings... 25% C. Class Participation It is expected that the student will arrive in class with assigned reading completed and will be ready to interact with the material at a meaningful level both by asking and answering questions pertinent to the session s topic. Participation is expected from all members of the class. If you have a laptop computer, bring it to class for your use during computer program demos. D. Late Assignments Assignments are due in the class session listed on the assignment schedule. Late assignments will not be accepted except in the case of an emergency or unless prior arrangements have been made with the professor. Please notify the professor as soon as you realize there may be a problem in completing an assignment on time. No assignment can be reworked and submitted for a higher grade.
4 RS101 Orientation and Research Methods 4 E. Absences Prompt attendance is expected at every class session. Excessive absences will be detrimental to the student s ability to fulfill the objectives of the course. VI. COURSE SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION A. Communication Competency Criteria The faculty has established criteria for measuring desired student competency in the area of communication as reflected in the chart below. In light of this, we have set forth specific competencies that the student should develop and demonstrate as a result of completing RS101. This course helps the student develop and demonstrate proficiency in written communication competency at Level 1 (correct form), Level 2 (using computer tools to prepare for writing an evaluative essay on a topic), and Level 3 (appropriate research and documentation). Communication Level 5 to be attained by all Th.M. students before graduating. Level 4 Level 3 to be attained by all master s-level students before graduating. Level 2 Level 1 to be attained by all students by the end of their first semester, if not at matriculation. The student is able to persuade others effectively with respect to biblical and theological truth through oral, written, and electronic media. The student is able to write an acceptable summative research thesis or paper (RS102) and preach a sermon that is audience-focused in its structure, proofs, and application, with a delivery (voice and body) that is natural for the speaker. The student is able to write a paper that reflects sound exegesis and theological reflection and preach a sermon with a clear central proposition, structure, and application that reflects sound exegesis of and theological reflection on a biblical text. The student is able to write an appropriately researched and documented paper on a biblical and/or theological topic and deliver an oral presentation designed to influence listeners toward change, using audience-focused learning objectives and appropriate methods. The student is able to write an evaluative essay on a biblical and/or theological topic reflecting vocabulary appropriate to the subject and deliver an interesting oral presentation on a biblical and/or theological topic with congruent nonverbal expression. The student is able to write a cogent essay using correct form, grammar, and spelling and deliver a cogent oral presentation reflecting basic oral communication skills. B. Disability Accommodation Policy Dallas Seminary does not discriminate on the basis of disability in the operation of any of its programs and activities. To avoid discrimination the student is responsible for informing the Coordinator of Services for Students with Disabilities and the course instructor of any disabling condition that will require modifications.
