Teaching in the Study of Religion and Beyond: Discussion with Authors

In this pre-arranged panel, the editor and contributors of Teaching in the Study of Religion and Beyond: A Practical Guide for Undergraduate Classes (Bloomsbury 2024) come together to discuss practical issues related to the undergraduate classroom. This panel is constructed with new teachers in mind and offers insights from professors who have taught for many years in various institutional contexts, although any teacher will benefit from the shared insights around the many practical issues that emerge across the teaching career. Each contributor will share brief summaries of their contribution to the volume (topics may include Accommodations, Teaching Assistants, Digital Humanities, Experiential Learning, DEI, Extra Credit, etc.). Following their presentations, the remainder of the session will be dedicated to a Q&A / rapid fire advice / open conversation about issues involved in teaching undergraduates.
