Adventist Youth Honors Answer Book

Introduction

Index of Honor Series

Official answer books for some honor series are available through AdventSource, although some honor series do not have answer books at all. This Wikibook aims to fill that gap. The requirements (without answers) for all honors are available through AdventSource or online in various locations. The answers here are based on the requirements as adopted for the North American Division unless otherwise noted.

This answer book is being written by Pathfinders for Pathfinders. Anyone (even non-Pathfinders) can contribute new answers or edit existing answers, and the reader is encouraged to become an active participant in the development of this continually evolving work.

Honors with Completed Answer Entries

The entries for these honors have complete answers. Others are still under construction and may have had substantial work done on them, so it's very much worth your time to check in the appropriate series index for the honor you're interested in teaching.

Guidelines for Contributors

If you wish to contribute, welcome! Here are some guidelines.

The requirements for every honor have already been entered, with the exception of the newest honors with unreleased requirements. Instruction for meeting the requirement, or an answer to the question posed by the requirement should follow the requirement. Look at some of the existing answers to see how they are structured before you begin. Press the "edit this page" link to see how wiki markup is done, and be sure to check out the "editing help" link that appears at the bottom of a page being edited.

Please do not copy content from copyrighted sources without securing permission first. This especially applies to the answers in the official Answer Books by Leland Davis. It also applies to content that other people have written for various Pathfinder websites and to images you find on the Internet. Please read the Wikibooks:Copyrights section for more information. It is OK to gather information from these resources, and you are encouraged to consult multiple sources - but with few exceptions, you must put answers in your own words.

Resources in the public domain can be incorporated here without any constraints. This includes original works by the US government and anything published in the US before 1920. You also may copy content (modified or verbatim) from Wikipedia, and you may use any images you find in the Wikimedia Commons. Be aware though that many wikipedia articles are written at a very high level, often requiring a college education (or medical degree!) to fully understand.

Keep your audience in mind when writing. Try to use language that is geared toward the typical Pathfinder who will be taught using this information. That means you should write at the fifth-grade level for honors that are designated as skill level 1, and eighth-grade level for honors that are designated at skill levels 2 and 3. It's OK to use technical terms as long as they are explained in the text.

Adding Credentials to Chapters

Authors: If you do most of the work on a given honor, and if you possess special expertise and/or credentials on the subject, please add an About the Author section to the end of the chapter. This section should spell out your credentials. Please do not be concerned about how this will violate your sense of humility - the purpose of adding this section is to enhance the book, not your status. Adding your credentials to the bottom of an honor lends credence to that chapter in particular, and to the entire project as a whole. You are also encouraged to add a photo of yourself in this section, as it increases the "friendliness" factor of the book.

First Party Reviewers: If you have expertise on an honor but did not write the material, please review it carefully and make any necessary corrections. You do not need permission to do this. You are encouraged to place a notice at the bottom of the chapter listing your credentials and stating that you have reviewed the material and find it to be accurate.

Third Party Reviewers: If you enlist the help of an expert to review your work, please add an Acknowledgment section containing a Thank you to the chapter. Be sure to list credentials of the reviewer, but also indicate that any mistakes in the chapter are your own.
