E-Tutorials

E-Tutorials use email as the sole mechanism for communication between the student and the Foundation faculty. Each course is taught as a one-on-one tutorial between the student and the faculty person offering the course. This curriculum is offered exclusively by our own faculty. The faculty evaluation of student performance will be linked to the degree level of the student. A complete roster of E-Tutorial courses is available on the Foundation’s website here. New courses are regularly added to this roster.

E-Tutorial Process

The student reads the assigned textual materials and emails a 500-word response to the Foundation for each of six sessions. The faculty person sends a personal critique and comment on each of the student’s response papers, and, at the end of the six sessions, the student submits a final paper which is essentially the six combined 500-word papers which the student has edited in light of the faculty person’s critical comments during the course.

The 500-word response papers required for each E-Tutorial are expected to be academic and scholarly in nature and, where appropriate, formalize the bibliographic references included in each paper. By virtue of including bibliographic citations in each of the response papers, the student facilitates the compilation of all six 500-word response papers in the writing of the final paper for the course.A bibliography is, of course, always required for the final paper. Though impressionistic responses are welcomed in the response papers, each response paper and the resulting final paper should demonstrate acquaintance with the required readings by use of footnotes and bibliographical citations.

Academic Coursework Policy

All papers written for an E-Tutorial must be submitted within 30 days of completing the E-Tutorial or no course credit will be awarded.
