Developing Religious Literacy: Best Practices for Instruction
Description
Teaching about religion is crucial for a comprehensive understanding of history and for fostering respect in a civic-minded society. However, many educators face challenges and concerns when integrating religious studies into their curriculum. Focusing on the NCSS’s C3 Supplement on Teaching about Religion, teachers will discuss the legal foundations in the United States for teaching about religion, use case studies to consider the very real challenges involved in teaching this topic, and review guidelines and compelling digital options for incorporating the study of religion into their instruction, thus empowering teachers to navigate these complexities with confidence.
