Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christian teachers have long been thinking about what content to teach, but little scholarship has been devoted to how faith forms the actual process of teaching. Is there a way to go beyond Christian perspectives on the subject matter and think about the teaching itself as Christian? In this book David I. Smith shows how faith can and should play a critical role in shaping pedagogy and the learning experience.

This book was released on 2022-01-13 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is education? How and why do educators do what we do? And, in what way can and ought education be distinctively Christian? These are a few of the probing questions for which this book seeks answers. Among other contributions, Currivean's book explores a biblical philosophy of Christian education with unprecedented breadth and depth. To accomplish this objective, it considers what education is (chapter 1), what philosophy of education is (chapter 2), and what the ultimate goal of education is (chapter 3). Additionally, this book provides a never-before, Christian overview of twelve philosophies of education (chapters 4-15). Each of those chapters provides an introduction of a particular philosophy of education and some of that philosophy's exemplars. Each of those chapters also contributes a constructive, Christian critique. Chapter 16 highlights a biblical philosophy of Christian education--featuring some people, some principles, and some priorities for a biblical philosophy of Christian education, viz. pursuing excellence for the glory of God.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William J Wilson, The Christian School in Secular Society, BOOK SUMMARY. In this world, according to Scripture, there are two distinct kingdoms. One is the Kingdom of Grace made up of "the people of the light" and the other is the Kingdom of Nature made up of "the people of this world." The Kingdom of Grace is an eternal kingdom with interests that transcend this world. The Kingdom of Nature focuses only on this world. Schools are powerful instruments that can be used to reflect the interests of either kingdom. In a society that has become secularized there is an urgent need for Christians to increase their efforts to promote, establish and maintain schools that will accurately reflect who they are and where they are going. The Kingdom of Nature has taken full advantage of schools to promote humanistic naturalism. The Kingdom of Grace needs to take equal advantage of schools to promote a biblical understanding of life within the context of the highest spiritual and academic standards.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Teaching and Christian Practices several university professors describe and reflect on their efforts to allow historic Christian practices to reshape and redirect their pedagogical strategies. Whether allowing spiritually formative reading to enhance a literature course, employing table fellowship and shared meals to reinforce concepts in a pre-nursing nutrition course, or using Christian hermeneutical practices to interpret data in an economics course, these teacher-authors envision ways of teaching and learning that are rooted in the rich tradition of Christian practices, as together they reconceive classrooms and laboratories as vital arenas for faith and spiritual growth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than ten years after its publication in 1975, The Idea of a Christian College has become, in the prophetic words of Nicholas Wolterstorff, "a classic, a standard." Widely used by students, lay readers, teachers, and administrators, it provides a concise case for the Christian college and defines its distinctive mission and contribution. This revised edition is Holmes' response to the many professors and students who have read the work enthusiastically and urged the author to clarify certain ideas and to address further aspects of the overall subject. The author has extensively revised several chapters, has eliminated one-gender language, and has included two new chapters: "Liberal Arts as Career Preparation" and "The Marks of an Educated Person."--Back cover.

Book excerpt: Based on the teachings of Jesus and a biblical foundation, this book presents a new framework for education and teaching, referred to as the shalom education model, that addresses four essential questions in education (why teach, what to teach, how to teach and who are teachers?). After explaining the theoretical background of shalom, the book investigates a range of contemporary educational issues including gender identity, bullying, disability, linguistic and cultural diversity, and social justice, and presents practical guidelines that can be applied to classroom teaching. The book also emphasizes the role of teachers as missional leaders who help students unlock their full potential.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this holistic study of the integration of faith and learning, Dr. Sarinah Lo challenges the Western tendency to privilege knowing over being and doing. In the context of Indonesian higher education, Dr. Lo addresses the cognitive, affective, spiritual, relational, and vocational aspects of human nature. She demonstrates that effective integration of faith and learning must reach beyond the academic disciplines to address the formation of a Christian perspective in all areas of life, thought, and practice. Utilizing in-depth interviews and qualitative analysis, Dr. Lo’s field research explores the specific challenges facing Christian faculty in Indonesia, where the rise of radical Islam and the pressure to conform to state ideology raise unique questions about the nature of faith-learning integration. The first study of its kind, this is an excellent resource for educators wanting to think more broadly about what it means to follow Christ in the classroom, pushing beyond Western models of integration to embrace the more holistic approach of faith-integrated being, knowing, and doing.

Download or read book A Case Study of the Integration of Faith and Learning at a Christian College written by Terri J. Gaeddert and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many faith-based institutions articulate a mission of bringing faith and scholarship together. The integration of faith and learning is widely discussed, yet limited empirical research of the concept exists. This qualitative case study provides insight into the daily, lived experiences of the campus community at a small, private, liberal arts college as they worked together to achieve the mission of Christ-centered education. The study was designed to facilitate understanding of how the organizational culture of an institution influenced daily life; to see if participants perceived the organization as living the mission of integrating faith and learning. The college had a full-time enrollment of 281 students in traditional, resident-based programs, and about 400 non-traditional, on-ground and online students. Document reviews, interviews, and focus group sessions with faculty, staff, and students were utilized. Upper-level administrators (4) participated in individual interviews. Two focus group sessions each were held for faculty (11), staff (14), and students (11), for a total of 40 participants. Data were analyzed through the lenses of organizational culture and transformational leadership. Findings revealed both culture and leadership played a role in helping the community walk the talk, and four conclusions related specifically to the integration of faith and learning. First, language is important. The phrase, integration of faith and learning, articulates a concept that is both too broad and too narrow to provide a model for empirical research. Second, institutional culture influences the ability of the college to achieve its mission. Third, faculty face challenges similar to those described by other researchers. And, fourth support is needed to facilitate the process of integrating faith and learning in the academic areas. These conclusions imply schools should discuss what the integration of faith and learning means for their unique campus culture, and align leadership with organizational culture to support the achievement of their missions.

Download or read book Innovating Christian Education Research written by Johannes M. Luetz and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-01-04 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reformulates Christian education as an interdisciplinary and interdenominational vocation for professionals and practitioners. It speaks directly to a range of contemporary contexts with the aim of encouraging conceptual, empirical and practice-informed innovation to build the field of Christian education research. The book invites readers to probe questions concerning epistemologies, ethics, pedagogies and curricula, using multidisciplinary research approaches. By helping thinkers to believe and believers to think, the book seeks to stimulate constructive dialogue about what it means to innovate Christian education research today.Chapters are organised into three main sections. Following an introduction to the volume's guiding framework and intended contribution (Chapter 1), Part 1 features conceptual perspectives and comprises research that develops theological, philosophical and theoretical discussion of Christian education (Chapters 2-13). Part 2 encompasses empirical research that examines data to test theory, answer big questions and develop our understanding of Christian education (Chapters 14-18). Finally, Part 3 reflects on contemporary practice contexts and showcases examples of emerging research agendas in Christian education (Chapters 19-24).

Book excerpt: The phrase "integration of faith and learning" has come to describe the way many Christian colleges and universities understand how all learning falls under the lordship of Jesus Christ. With its origins in the philosophical and theological insights of the Reformed tradition, this phrase has expanded its influence to institutions nurtured by numerous Christian traditions. This volume draws together prominent scholars who reflect on Christian higher education as it may exist beyond the integration model.
