text: This unit will require students to engage in further extensive readings – at least 650 pages in total. The actual books to be read should be chosen in consultation with the student’s supervisor. These readings should be selected by the student, in consultation with a supervisor, to address specific gaps or needs in the student’s knowledge, skills or character with respect to ministry preparedness. The purpose of this reading is to deepen the student’s overall knowledge in this area, fill in gaps in specific areas, and encourage a healthy synthesis and mastery of their studies overall.
  Students will also be expected to attend approximately four two-hour online facilitation sessions with a supervisor and other students. Spread throughout the trimester, students will discuss their plans for the unit and make presentations to receive feedback on their final assessment.
