Worldview Literacy in the Academy and Beyond: Advancing Mutual Understanding in Diverse Societies
Valk, John; Selçuk, Mualla; Miedema, Siebren
Religious Education, v115 n3 p364-374 2020
Diverse societies face increasing racial tension, social divide, religious illiteracy, and secularism. What role can education play in confronting these challenges? Universities generate scientific knowledge but less so the search for meaning. Worldview studies encompasses both views of life and ways of life. Exploring various worldviews becomes a search for meaning and a journey into knowing self and others. This article seeks to engage multiple partners to develop teaching pedagogies, curricula, and educational tools to enhance greater knowledge, awareness, and understanding of various worldviews.
