I. Workshops and Other Reflective Practices on Teaching and Learning
This area of program develops workshops and colloquies for teachers of theology and religion that enable them to become more effective teachers both in their classes and within their broader institutional and professional contexts. The goal of these gatherings is to facilitate reflective conversations around their discipline, vocation, and the work of teaching and learning.

II. Development of the Professorate in Theology and Religion
Activities in this area aim to help graduate students make successful transitions from school to careers as teaching scholars and to help them become better teachers.

III. Sustaining Empowering Environments in Theological Schools & Religion Departments
The trajectory of this area is to discover what aspects of institutional life and communal interactions create good contexts for teaching and learning and then help individuals and institutions to create such environments.

IV. Technologies and Theological Teaching and Learning
Those who know and control the new technologies will shape in powerful ways American civic discourse about theology and religion. The way in which the newer technologies relate to learning and teaching about theology and religion are the foci of this program area.

A final goal of the Wabash Center is to create a new generation of material, in a variety of genres, dealing directly with teaching and learning in specific contexts and disciplines.
