EurECA 2009 Conference

| David Smith |
The EurECA 2009 conference will be held May 21-24, 2009, at Emmaüs Institut (Vevey, Switzerland). Kuyers Institute director David Smith will be the keynote speaker, addressing the topic "How Should Christians Teach?"
Our approaches to teaching and learning play an important role in forming students. Christian reflection on pedagogy needs to go beyond a focus on the teacher's personal morality or care for students, and consider how teaching methods intersect with questions of faith. Our view of reality and especially of human nature and development deeply affects how we teach. It is clearly possible to teach solid Christian content in less than Christian ways; how can we think more clearly about letting our faith shape how and not only what we teach?
