Richard Jordan; Thomas M. Ward – International Journal of Christianity & Education, 2024
We make two interventions in two evolving scholarly literatures. First, we show how fractal metaphors escape a recurring dichotomy in Christian pedagogical scholarship, the either/or of alienation from one's object of study versus union with it in "an act of love." Second, we try to replace recent interdisciplinary work's emphasis on…

Langer Primdahl, Nis – Oxford Review of Education, 2022
The introduction of mindfulness into schools and its potential effects on health and wellbeing promotion have received substantial attention among scholars. However, the implications and consequences thematised by critics of school-based mindfulness have yet to receive the same analytical scrutiny. One side has praised mindfulness as a useful…

Bearn, Gordon C. F. – Journal of Philosophy of Education, 2019
This essay suggests that Wittgenstein's philosophy can be read as an example of what Hadot and Foucault call spiritual practices, and it uses that reading to cast light on the way certain experiences can change one's life. These experiences could as simple as reading a book or even, as might be the case with Thoreau, living alone by a pond. The…

Webster, R. Scott – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2022
The dominance of capitalism, through the hegemony of neoliberal ideology, is maintained as an illusion through the use of four main strategies. In order to obtain the consent of the population, mass schooling tends to produce graduates who accept this illusion because they are vulnerable to these strategies and cannot imagine a post-capitalist…

This article explores the powerful influence that trauma can have on individuals and the ways in which this influence might be addressed in the development of adult religious education.

Peterson, Heather W. – International Journal of Christianity & Education, 2022
In "To Young Men," Basil of Caesarea asserted that pagan literature could be read discerningly for the pursuit of virtue. As a professor of English, I recognize Basil as an exemplar pedagogue in my own insistence that Christian students read secular texts. Not a scholar of Greek, I rely on patristic scholarship to understand Basil's…

Moore, Mary Elizabeth – Religious Education, 2020
Sacred teaching takes many forms across religious traditions, focusing on creation and sacramentality in Christianity, God's nature and creation of human beings in Judaism, and spiritual and social practices in both. At the heart of Jewish, Muslim, and Christian traditions are accents on the sacredness of life, creation in the image of God, and…

Farrell, Thomas S. C.; Baurain, Bradley; Lewis, Marilyn – RELC Journal: A Journal of Language Teaching and Research, 2020
For most of its history, the field of teaching English to speakers of other languages (TESOL) has focussed much of its attention on teaching methods and curricula to the exclusion of the person who must deliver them. In this article we propose that TESOL recognize the inner lives of teachers through understanding their spirituality from the…

It offers commentary on the potential of relational pedagogy for Christian faith-based schools informed by the scholarship of German…
