Dear Colleagues,
A silver lining of this year’s AAR virtual meeting is that scholars can attend the conference with less expense and still enjoy robust discussions. The Buddhist Pedagogy Seminar committee is looking forward to having conversations with you about innovative ways to teach Buddhism in the modern classroom. The 2020 seminar will first have two 20-minute paper presentations and then three 10-minute roundtable presentations on Wednesday, December 2nd, from 11:00 am–1:00 pm EST. The topics are below.
Nathan McGovern, University of Wisconsin, Whitewater
Teaching Buddhism Alongside Islam in the Intro to Asian Religions Class
Elizabeth Guthrie, University of Waterloo
North American Religious Studies and “Built Pedagogy”
Alyson Prude, Georgia Southern University
Engaging Buddhist Ethics to Engage Students
