COURSE REQUIREMENTS
Give students an “at a glance” sense of the work required in the course. Required elements may be listed separately from grading procedures or included in the grading scheme, but both should be clearly indicated.
Check your course against the FEBI Curriculum Standards and Credit Hour Policy. Minimum reading: 375 pages (100/200 level) or 525 pages (300/400 level). Written work: about 2,000–3,000 words (lower division) or 2,500–3,500 words (upper division). Academic references with in-text citations: 3–5 (lower division) or 5–10 (upper division). Total student work: at least 135 hours, documented on the Course Workload Worksheet.
GRADING PROCEDURES
List each graded element and enter the points assigned to it. Use Weeks Used and Times Used to show when and how often the element appears in the course. Final Weighting is calculated automatically from each element’s points as a percentage of the total course points.
Grades will be based on the following elements:

ACADEMIC INTEGRITY
Academic integrity is a cornerstone of our community. All students are expected to adhere to the highest standards of honesty and integrity in their academic work. Plagiarism, cheating, and other forms of academic dishonesty are strictly prohibited and may result in disciplinary action. Resources to prevent plagiarism are located in the Student Resource Center.
The Use of AI: AI should be used to complement, rather than substitute for, students’ academic work. FEBI’s Code of Conduct policy is clear on academic integrity; students must produce original work, cite their sources, and present assessments that showcase their own learning outcomes. Submitting assignments written by AI is considered plagiarism.
ACCOMMODATIONS FOR STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES
In compliance with Fully Equipped Bible Institute policy and equal access laws, I am available to discuss appropriate academic accommodations that may be required for students with disabilities. Please submit requests for academic considerations and provisions as early as possible in the term, unless unusual circumstances require otherwise, to facilitate arrangements.

COURSE SCHEDULE
Based on a bachelor’s-level course schedule: 10 group forum sessions that meet once a week for two hours (subject to change to accommodate guest presenters and instructor and student needs).
Include a weekly table for all courses. It should be consistent with the required elements and points possible. You may want to include a late-work policy, especially since ideas about timeliness can vary across cultures. Communicate any schedule changes to students in writing before the change.
