Encountering Faith in the Classroom

Turning Difficult Discussions Into Constructive Engagement

Herausgeber: Diamond, Miriam R

Beschreibung

When faculty unexpectedly encounter students' religious ideologies in the classroom, they may respond with apprehension, frustration, dread, or concern. This book explores what happens - and what can happen - in the higher education, and even secondary school, classroom when course content meets or collides with students' religious beliefs.
