Comparative Theology in the Millennial Classroom (eBook, PDF)

Hybrid Identities, Negotiated Boundaries
Redaktion: Brecht, Mara; Locklin, Reid B

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This volume explores the twenty-first century classroom as a uniquely intergenerational space of religious disaffiliation, and questions about how our work in the classroom can be, and is being, re-imagined for the new generation. The culturally hybrid identity of Millennials shapes their engagement with religious 'others' on campus and in the classroom, pushing educators of comparative theology to develop new pedagogical strategies that leverage ways of seeing and interacting with their teachers and classmates. This volume theorizes the theological outcomes of current pedagogies and the shifting contours of comparative theological discourse.
