Abstract

Ze zijn met vele duizenden, de mensen achter de lokale pagina’s van Kerk & Leven. Samen schrijven ze elke week opnieuw 1.800 bladzijden bij elkaar, met waardevol nieuws van onder de kerktoren. De meesten als vrijwilliger. Wij wilden weten wie ze in het dagelijkse leven zijn. Een jaar lang portretteerden we hen op de nationale bladzijden van Kerk & Leven, in de rubriek ‘&co.’ We leerden mensen kennen met een verhaal dat tegelijk herkenbaar en verrassend is. Ze spelen doedelzak of elektrische gitaar, weten alles van Chagall, bedienen een watermolen, zijn onderzoeker aan de universiteit, runnen een internaat of een fietsclub, houden bijen of telen witloof. Ze blijken verbazend veelzijdig te zijn. Echte duizendpoten dus. De duizendpoten die de wereld doen draaien.

Abstract

This volume advances debates on digital culture and digital religion in two complementary ways. First, by focalizing the themes 'ontology,' 'ethics' and 'transcendence,' it builds on insights from research on digital religion in order to reframe the field and pursue an existential media analysis that further pushes beyond the mandatory focus in mainstream media studies on the social, cultural, political and economic dimensions of digitalization. Second, the collection also implies a broadening of the scope of the debate in the field of media, religion and culture - and digital religion in particular - beyond 'religion,' to include the wider existential dimensions of digital media.--

Abstract

How can teachers introduce Islam to students when daily media headlines can prejudice students' perception of the subject? Should Islam be taught differently in secular universities than in colleges with a clear faith-based mission? What are strategies for discussing Islam and violence without perpetuating stereotypes? The contributors of Teaching Islamic studies in the age of ISIS, Islamophobia, and the Internet address these challenges head-on and consider approaches to Islamic studies pedagogy, Islamaphobia and violence, and suggestions for how to structure courses. These approaches acknowledge the particular challenges faced when teaching a topic that students might initially fear or distrust. Speaking from their own experience, the contributors include examples of collaborative teaching models, reading and media suggestions, and ideas for group assignments that encourage deeper engagement and broader thinking. They also share personal struggles with confronted with students (including Muslim students) and parents who suspected the courses might have ulterior motives. In an age of stereotypes and misrepresentations of Islam, this book offers a range of means by which teachers can encourage students to thoughtfully engage with the topic of Islam.
