Dilemmas surrounding the role for religious beliefs and experiences
permeate the school lives of teachers and teacher educators.
Inspired by the need for teachers and students to more fully
understand such dilemmas, this book examines the relationship
between religion and teaching/learning in a democratic society.
Written for pre-service and in-service teachers, it will engage
readers in thinking about how their own religious backgrounds
affect their teaching; how students' religious backgrounds
influence their learning; how common experiences of school and
classroom life privilege some religions at the expense of others;
and how students can better understand diverse religious beliefs
and interact with people from other backgrounds. The focus is
specifically on classroom issues related to religious
understandings and experiences of teachers and students, and the
implications of those for developing democratic citizens. Grounded
in both research and personal experience, each chapter provides
thought-provoking evidence related to the role of religion in
schools and society and asks readers to consider the consequences
of varied ways of responding to the dilemmas posed.
