Course category rationale

Father Gregory

Hello everyone,

A few questions:

 1.)   What is the rationale behind the course numbering system?  Of particular note:  100, 200, 300 series.  Is there a relationship between levels of difficulty?  Maybe another perspective would be a level of previous knowledge of the subject matter.

2.)   The lettering system:  Some are self-explanatory: OT, NT, TH, others I can surmise: BI = Biblical Interpretation, CO = Counseling.  Then there are the mysteries:  LT and PD for example.

3.)   Curious:   Mo’s course LT151.  How did that label materialize? Will there be more training courses?

Thanks!

Captian I can't answer your first question with any certainty, but assume the numbering system proposes a level of progress in terms of level of knowledge. Whether that equates to a level of difficulty or 'required' prerequisite knowledge I can't comment on what the official rational of Logos m.Ed team.

On your second question LT would I think be Logos Training and PD stands for Personal/Professional Development.  At this stage there appears to be no more courses planned in the LT category and partial answer to your third question.  I was hoping to see the Learn to Use Greek/Hebrew with LBS updated and relaunched as LT modules but no indication of this yet. 

For list of planned course see https://www.logos.com/mobile-ed/courses and scroll down the page.  This will help you with identifying what all the letter abbreviations refer and may give a better sense of the numbering levels till we get an official answer on that point.
