Grading Policies
Assignments are graded on Thursday's, Friday’s and Saturday’s, or within a week of submission.
I grade essays primarily on their content, but spelling, grammar, and essay structure do matter as do following directions and fulfilling what the assignment calls for. Proofread your work before submitting it. I reduce the grade if there are multiple errors, content is out of context, or is incomprehensible in relation to the subject matter. Be concise.
Therefore I highly encourage you to wait before submitting and take time to reread, preferably out loud what you have written. Essays with numerous errors make it difficult to understand what you are expressing.
Save a copy of your work outside the GSW site.
Check spelling and grammar on all assignments. If I cannot make sense of a submission, it will be returned for you to do over.
Do not use text-speak or abbreviations in assignments and communications.
All classwork and the final exam is to be considered open-book and allows the use of the class material, Required Reading assignments, and any other resources.
All work must be original to the student and properly cite any references. Plagiarism will not be tolerated. Follow the official Grey School plagiarism policy found on the forums here: https://www.gswhandbook.com/academic-policies. Cite any references in your work appropriately. Additionally, the class Writing and Citing (L1; Lore) is useful for teaching the basics of citing your work. If you have any questions about the policy, please ask.
My grading standards increase with a student's experience level. For instance, I would expect much more academic rigor and skill in a paper from an L6 student than a paper from an L1 student. This also includes citing your sources.
If you have any questions or concerns about this class, you may contact me through the GSW contact instructor or office hours form and by email at Rev.BernardAlvarez@GreySchool.com
Learning Disabilities
If you have a learning disability or any other limitation that might hinder your performance in this class, notify me as soon as you enroll. I will provide extra assistance or other considerations if at all possible.
Grading Scale
100%: Exceptional work. Goes above and beyond what the assignment required. Is thorough and detailed. I’m impressed! This is an A+!
95%: Meets all the requirements of the assignment. Shows me you understand the material. Variance based on thoroughness and grammar/spelling. This is a strong A paper.

85%: Does not meet all of the requirements of the assignment. Variance based on incompleteness and spelling/grammar. This is a good solid B.

Below 80%: This is a failing grade and a re-take is necessary and has to be re-set by the instructor. Ways you can improve the essay will be included in the feedback.
*Give more than you imagine!
I expect all work to be proofread carefully and will return work that has significant errors.
For students choosing an artistic option, pictures should be embedded in the essay boxes, along with a description of what you chose to do and why. Links should be provided for access to audio or video recordings, along with a description of what you chose and why.

Chakras 301: The Anatomy of Energy Credits: 3 Level: 3 Instructor: "Dean Meighen" Class Description:
Welcome
to Chakras and the Anatomy of Energy. Dive deeper into your
understanding of the Mysteries of the Far East. Increase your knowledge base of
energy and chakra system. Learn how they are anchors to the energetic layers of
the body that comprise more than the aura around all living things. Realize their
unique relationship to all living organisms.
This
course gives you a broader perspective on how our bodies and energy interact within
us as well as with the world around us. This enhances your ability to
understand meditation and the sensations that occur in this deep-trance-state
of being.
Once
setting a foot upon the path of Meditation, the seeker has only one direction
in which to travel. With single sight, just as a moth to a flame, in
exploration we begin to weave our energy together in concordance through the
three principal Nadis[1].
This is a cornerstone of the practice of Yoga[2].
Keep in mind the true meaning of Yoga is Meditation.
You
are going to explore the three great channels of energy as taught through the
knowledge of the Tantras[3]
which are Ida[4],
Pingala[5] and Sushumna[6]Nadis. To engage the energies of these sacred channels is to execute the
dance of connectivity.
*Please keep in mind the
motto of Grey School of Wizardry in the words of Cicero is:

Energy: Introduction to Theory & Practice Credits: 3 Level: 3 Instructor: Soror Mimm Class Description:
Have you ever wondered exactly what energy is, or how we use it for our magickal purposes? Did you know that we all use energy every second of every day to make decisions on a subconscious level? Did you know that you can purposefully use this energy if you only realized that you use it already? Would realizing this make magickal workings easier? Of course it would. There has to be an easier way to find and use this energy and in my own personal journey I've found the way that works for me. It's this information that I want to share with you.
While it is true that no two people will understand energy or how to use it in exactly the same way, I have noted that there are some similarities across the board, things that make sense to all of us no matter what path we choose. By the end of the class, you will have additional tools with which to consider how you personally understand energy and the magick you can create with it. You will be able to develop your own personal theories and grow your path in a way that makes sense to you.
