Teachers of Religion and Theology
in Colleges, Universities, and Theological Schools:
In 400 words, describe a successful teaching tactic that you have used and that could be replicated by other instructors.
We are currently especially interested in receiving Tactics specific to online classrooms.
1. State succinctly the context within which you used the strategy
2. State the pedagogical purpose of the strategy
3. Describe the strategy itself in brief, clear language
4. State why and how the strategy was effective - i.e., how it supported student learning.
5. Please provide a title Please be sure to label each of these steps (making the Tactic easy for the reader to scan and comprehend). In some cases you may want to change the order of the steps, particularly exchanging steps 2 and 3.
Brevity is key. Please do not exceed 400 words.And a successful Teaching Tactic will be transferable by the reader beyond the narrowly specific context of your course, your reading assignments, and your lecture notes.
Manuscripts are accepted on an on-going basis.
