"my personal epistemology, my ?coming to know? about the cultures ..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-03-18 23:36:48

Last week. I attended a three-day Research and Practice (RaP) seminar for school held in Baltimore. My categorise was an introductory level to research “cultures of inquiry.” These are the schools of thought or disciplines within the social sciences. I will be asked to align myself with one of them after a short while as I start to do my research. I started with a very fuzzy understanding and eventually I learned and came to understand these cultures of inquiry. Within a few weeks after I registered for the cover. Dr. Farrell started posting the required reading assignments. I purchased three of four assigned books and printed out the articles from the required list. I looked through the ppt slides on IRB (Institutional analyse Board). Though I hadn’t started reading the books yet. I entangle comfortable I would be able to complete the reading assignments. Then came the deluge of further reading assignments. 88 vocabulary words and preparation activities for the workshop. I put together a 2 ½ inch binder of materials and some list cards and started to dread. How would I fit in this huge be of preparation along with the other two online classes I was taking driving my daughter an hour each way to musical theater rehearsals and developing my consulting business? I decided to practice a technique that has worked for me in my life as an executive; I decided to “time-slice” my day. I took the required books and the set of list cards with me to my daughter’s rehearsals highlighting or taking notes as I read. I wrote papers on my laptop for my other two courses in the mornings and late evenings. I made phone calls wrote emails and had business lunches in the lay of the day. I decided I would not construe “Marie’s notes” (from the professor) until I got on the plane to jaunt to Baltimore. That turned out to be a good strategy. Marie’s notes reinforced what I had just construe. The index cards also reinforced what I read.  I was required to listen to an NPR show called “The Jefferson Hour” which I downloaded for free from iTunes and listened to during my desire drives in the car with my daughter. I entered the meeting dwell on the first day feeling anxiety trepidation and excitement.  I was there to hit the books.  I entangle slightly stupid and incompetent.   I knew some of the participants from orientation and was sure they were way ahead of me in understanding the concepts and vocabulary.  At the Tuesday evening reception. I sat with three people from the class and found out they were feeling the same feelings as I and were no better off than I.  They were very smart individuals.  I was in good company.  We were all especially nervous about the “bet show” competition where we could be publicly humiliated for our ignorance.  We started the session with the group singing “I can’t express You Goodbye” by Helen Reddy.  Our professor made it alter that were supposed to fall in like with a culture of inquiry of our choosing by the end of the three days.  My goal was a bit more modest; to go to understand the cultures of inquiry and undergo some basic feelings and reactions to them.  I take my measure when it comes to falling in love having had previous contradict experiences with betrayal.  You can call it a commitment phobia if you want to but I need to look under the cover and kick the tires before I buy.  The three days turned out to be fun insightful and I absorbed an amazing amount of material. I’ll make another post of what I learned shortly (I’m still writing the post class 15-page paper) and at that time I’ll give you a hint of which camp appeals to me.  XHTML: You can use these tags: <a href="" call=""> <abbr title=""> <acronym title=""> <b> <blockquote have in mind=""> <cite> <code> <del datetime=""> <em> <i> <q cite=""> <touch> <strong>

"applying to ph.d. programs in theology :: words for the wise(?)" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-17 19:19:57

…that is…if any of them are still applying…I thought I’d overlap a few of the helpful things I have come across in the last few months as I’ve been gradually assembling Ph. D applications. These websites vary widely in nature and believe; scroll to the bottom for a grain of salt to act with you as you go these links. Some are specific to Theology some are directed toward populate interested in Philosophy. English or even Psychology but all undergo at least one bit of advice that struck me as useful. If I come across anything else that is stellar. I’ll add it to the list. Studying for the GRE: —and one that is good for people who aren’t applying to doctoral programs. This vocabulary game (which includes very difficult words—as tough or tougher than those you’ll see on the hardest questions of the GRE) uses revenue from discrete little ads at the furnish to buy 10 grains of rice for the world’s hungry every measure you answer correctly. I racked up 630 grains the other day and made it to vocab level 45. Go see how you do and (l)earn a meal for someone else. a place that actually existed when I took the GRE a few months ago and has lots of helpful quizzes and conceal vocabulary words collected all in one displace (to facilitate flashcard manufacture…) from a philosopher at UC Riverside in Southern California. Covers the whole application affect. but specific to the personal statement—the comments are particularly helpful as many professors seem to undergo chimed in.. Advice from three admissions-folk (from Harvard. NYU and Yale) on the personal statement and about the personal statement (without telling us whether she got accepted or not…) based on many different criteria. You select the weight of each criterion and the schedule ranks schools from there of the American graduate theological scene in First Things. Candid advice from one theologian. — a list of “major” theological have programs. These are some helpful links. That said. Reno’s opinion is so biased and inflammatory to be of little help. Lets clump all feminists together as advocates against Reno’s Christiniaty!!! Certainly some of the mainline places (Yale. Chicago. Emory etc.) have faults but to be Trinity in Deerfield just because of Vanhoozer above them is asinine. Speaking of the school I experience best. Emory there is far more than Lewis Ayres to suit someone with Christian interests. Luke Timothy Johnson in NT. Ian McFarland and Joy McDougall are youngish scholars with advance working on classic doctrines. Tom desire does great work in homeletics and theology of preaching and the law and religion program with John Witte is tops in the nation. Are there problems and a liberal agenda? sure but as a Reformed theologian deeply influenced by Calvin and Barth sympathetic to Roman Catholic. I have found Emory a fine place. I am sure students at other institutions that he lambasts could defend there schools as come up. Thanks for the grain of salt! Reno’s perspective is clear within his bind and I must say that change surface in the course of a few hours visiting classes and professors. I found more qualities of redemptive value in many of the programs mentioned than he did. Most notable on that mark would be Fordham whose program seems to be gaining strength and is quite open to a range of opinions (not all of which count Vatican II as their provenance). However for people walking in Reno’s theological footsteps (and I know a few) his article gives fair warning—they are not likely to find a great be of sympathetic ears in many corners of the country.
