(And Now For Something Completely Different)
It has rightly been said that 'miracles transcend the body' since they prove that the body does not exist where it is at. Since the body physically has no problems by reforming our minds we are able to transcend the laws of the body. The proper use of mind can actually perform anything in the material world. Really God did not create this world. The laws of this world, the principles of gravity, death, sickness, and nutrition all the principles are actually are formulated by men. They are considered as the outcome of the ego mind. We accord priority to the laws as a result of our allegiance to the ego. Simply therefore, just by deterring from such allegiance by means of strong resolute will it is possible to transcend all those laws. Jesus therefore said that faith can move mountains. (The Fifty Miracle Principles of a Course in Miracles)
This implies that every thing is made of our minds and therefore it is not surprising that by changing the mind and attitude every thing can be changed that the mind has formulated. This can also be rightly applied to the physical world. It is quite evident that many people have succeeded in training their minds so as to move a glass or cup from one part of the table to another. This is not surprising with a dedicated and disciplined mind. And if moving a cup is possible physically, the logic in moving a mountain with a disciplined and dedicated mind does not seem surprising. This may be considered as one of the mode of moving all those heavy stones in constructing the pyramids through the mastery of their minds. (The Fifty Miracle Principles of a Course in Miracles)
Our poverty or our affluence, our humbleness or pride, our wisdom or foolishness all owe to God, the source of all fulfillments. Our minds have been inspired...
Some are also atheist, agnostics, skeptics and doubters. Still all of us can rise above labels and prejudice, towards greater ideal, fulfillment and success. All such ideals teach us the way to overcome tremendous difficulties with faith and mind. The three outcomes of mind faith, hope and love gradually transcend our hearts since our childhood transforms the entire material world. Speaking in elderly tongues without having love is considered to be a resounding gong or clanging cymbal. Even having bestowed with the power of prophecy and fathoming all mysteries and acquiring all the knowledge and having faith that can move mountains but having no love it is considered as having nothing. Love is considered patient and kind, without envy, boasting, proud, rude, and self-seeking. The love never delights in evil but rejoices with the truth and always safeguards, trusts, hopes and perseveres. Thus the faith, hope and love bring success in every sphere. The youth can apply the three to reform their minds that can succeed in overcoming all the obstacles in every sphere of their activity. (Special Thanks to God)

Because they are not formal and have more of the quality of brainstorming, however it would be rare for a class to only require journals as a method of assessment.
