Recenzii
Teaching and Learning Religion celebrates the incredible pedagogical legacy of Patricia Killen and Gene Gallagher. Through a variety of engaging and well-researched case studies from diverse perspectives, their students make this legacy tangible for readers. The chapters illustrate how scholars of religion can engage students in the classroom and enliven the study of religion in the twenty-first century.
In this tribute to Eugene Gallagher and Patricia O'Connell Killen, Davina Lopez and Tom Pearson present seventeen original essays on teaching written by scholars in the field of religious studies. As one lucky enough to have been mentored by these giants of pedagogy, I am moved and inspired by this celebration of their guidance. Teaching and Learning Religion should be required reading for religion scholars before entering a classroom.
Lopez and Pearson's useful and delightful volume gathers talented teachers to offer reflections on and from their engagement with two master teachers in religious studies, Eugene V. Gallagher and Patricia O'Connell Killen. From developing voice, to finding the "'sweet spot"' in teaching difficult subjects, to laughter in the classroom, the work offers much to ponder on the hard work of teaching and learning.
