T4T . . . Pandemic Edition
teaching theology in turbulent times
Join high school teachers from around the country for an online conversation about the challenges of teaching theology in turbulent times. How are you adapting to the new demands brought on by the pandemic? How do you talk to students about racism? How do you teach about conscience and the common good in an election year?
This half-day webinar will include time for reflection, expert presentations, and the opportunity to interact with other teachers who are facing the same challenges. Participation is free. Registration required.
WEBINAR Sessions
Ignatian Pedagogy in a Digital Age
Regardless of what school looks like this year, we all face students immersed in their screens. Cindy Bonfini Hotlosz (CEO, Centreity Learning Solutions) demonstrates ways to design our teaching in order to reach this digital generation.
Catholic Spirituality and Racial Justice
Who has the sinful world shaped me to be? Who does Christ call me to be? An honest wrestling with these questions in prayer, humility, and relationship, argues Dr. Andrew Prevot (Boston College), is the only way to transform society and root out the injustice in our hearts.
Political Choices in a Morally Complex World
For Catholics striving to uphold the fullness of the faith, election year brings no good options. How are we to encourage faithful citizenship among our students? Fr. James Bretzke, SJ (John Carroll) discusses conscience and the common good.
