Book World Yearbook of Education 1966

Download or read book World Yearbook of Education 1966 written by George Z. F. Bereday and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-24 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 2005. Broadly speaking, church-state relations in education turn nowadays upon two chief issues: I. Should religion be taught in state schools? And if so, may the state interfere with the teaching? 2. In countries where separate schools, under church control, exist should they have a share of public funds? Church and state issues flare up anew whenever there appears a repressive government action or a dynamic drive of the churches for a larger share of privileges. Both occur frequently enough to make this World Year Book a lively read.

Book The Outrageous Idea of Christian Teaching

Download or read book The Outrageous Idea of Christian Teaching written by Perry Glanzer and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-07-29 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hundreds of thousands of professors claim Christian as their primary identity, and teaching as their primary vocational responsibility. Yet, in the contemporary university the intersection of these two identities often is a source of fear, misunderstanding, and moral confusion. How does being a Christian change one's teaching? Indeed, should it? Inspired by George Marsden's 1997 book The Outrageous Idea of Christian Scholarship, this book draws on a survey of more than 2,300 Christian professors from 48 different institutions in North America, to reveal a wide range of thinking about faith-informed teaching. Placing these empirical findings alongside the wider scholarly conversation about the role of identity-informed teaching, Perry L. Glanzer and Nathan F. Alleman argue that their Christian identity can and should inform professors' teaching in the contemporary pluralistic university. The authors provide a nuanced alternative to those who advocate for restraining the influence of one's extra-professional identity and those who, in the name of authenticity, promote the full integration of one's primary identity into the classroom. The book charts new ground regarding how professors think about Christian teaching specifically, as well as how they should approach identity-informed teaching more generally.

Book The Cruciform Faculty

Download or read book The Cruciform Faculty written by Mark H. Heinemann and published by Information Age Publishing. This book was released on 2016-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do Christian higher education institutions orient new faculty members to their role on a Christian campus? How do they lead faculty members toward a deeper understanding of the Christian dimension of their place in higher education? Bible Colleges, Christian Universities, and Seminaries need a resource that can be provided to faculty members or be used in faculty development discussions. This book is designed to serve as just such a resource. It provides a clear and concise portrait of the general role of faculty from a distinctively evangelical Christian perspective. We use the metanarrative of being formed by the cross to describe the "cruciform" role of professors as teachers in the classroom, mentors to the students, scholars within the academy, and servants of the church and community. Each chapter will have personal and group reflection questions and exercises to aid in application.

Book Faith and Learning

  • Author : Kenneth Rea Badley
  • Publisher : Leafwood Publishers & Acu Press
  • Release : 2014-09-01
  • ISBN : 9780891124115
  • Pages : 260 pages

Download or read book Faith and Learning written by Kenneth Rea Badley and published by Leafwood Publishers & Acu Press. This book was released on 2014-09-01 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christian colleges expect faculty to clearly articulate an understanding of the impacts that Christian faith has on their teaching, research, and service. Many faculty find this dimension of their work-often labeled the integration of faith and learning-confusing and difficult to realize in practice, to assess, and to describe. This volume begins by clarifying two things. It summarizes the faith/learning discussion and offers a working conception of faith/integration specifically for Christian college faculty. It then outlines what deans, provosts, and tenure-promotion committees typically expect faculty in Christian colleges to know and do. Allen and Badley introduce the highly regarded framework of Ernest Boyer and the Carnegie Foundation (Scholarship Reconsidered, 1990). They then present both a framework for assessing faith/learning integration in the three dimensions of teaching, research, and service and step-by-step instructions for reporting and describing the individual faculty member's approach and success. The book closes by calling both the Christian college and the individual professor to the vocation of teaching, shaping, and sending.
