The heart of a truly complete education lies in individual
students' integration of understandings from the many dimensions of
their lives - religious, academic, and personal. The general
failing of formal schooling to achieve such an education is linked
to the ongoing struggle over the role of religion, particularly in
public education, where the teaching of evolution, discussions of
sexual practice, and various literary interpretations pose a
dilemma for schools in our diverse and pluralistic society with its
constitutional constraints. With careful attention to both the full
sweep of the purposes of education and alternative theories of
curriculum, this book charts a path for public schools in resolving
this dilemma.
Das Buch leistet auf empirischer Ebene einen Beitrag zur Debatte
uber die Bedeutsamkeit unterschiedlicher religioeser Lernorte -
insbesondere von Religionsunterricht und Katechese. Mit Hilfe von
zwoelf leitfadengestutzten Interviews werden an biografischen
Schnittstellen erste Kriterien und Parameter von Nachhaltigkeit und
Wirksamkeit religioeser Lernprozesse gewonnen.
A book on teaching and learning in theological education,
Decolonial Futures: Intercultural and Interreligious Intelligence
for Theological Education is guided by the questions, "What makes
education intercultural and interreligious?" "How might we rethink
and redesign spaces of learning to be hospitable to cultural and
religious differences as well as to dismantle the coloniality of
theological education?" "How might we subvert traditionally
colonial spaces to model the engaged intercultural and
interreligious world that we seek?" The book helps educators and
practitioners of intercultural and interreligious learning both
deconstruct and reconstruct spaces of learning by centering
interreligious and intercultural intelligence through the voices,
experiences, and narratives of minoritized people.
