CHARACTER EDUCATION

The Reflective Course Writer

  • ...
    Description

    If you are a teaching faculty member of a theological education institution – a seminary, theological or Bible college – then probably course writing is one of your major responsibilities.  

    Whether we are preparing courses for classroom based settings or for on-line delivery, we hope that the courses we write will impact significantly on our students. But there is one area which is integral to your course development task that isn't so obvious – and that area is what you as a person bring to the process, and how the course writing process impact on you as a person.

    This is about what it means to be a reflective practitioner – in your case, a reflective course writer. 

    Course Outcomes

    This course is designed to help you reflect on how you are being shaped as you immerse yourself in the course writing process; and where and how you sense God has been present.
