Abstract

Angela Kim Harkins is a contributing author, "Cultivating Empathy and Mindfulness: Religious Praxis", pp. 275-288.

Michael Pagano is a contributing author, "Exorcizing taboos: teaching end-of-life communication", pp. 176-191.

Book description: Catholic colleges and universities have long engaged in conversation about how to fulfill their mission in creative ways across the curriculum. The "sacramental vision" of Catholic higher education posits that God is made manifest in the study of all disciplines. Becoming Beholders is the first book to share pedagogical strategies about how to do that. Twenty faculty—from many religious backgrounds and teaching in fields as varied as chemistry, economics, English, history, mathematics, sociology, and theology—discuss ways that their teaching nourishes students' ability to find the transcendent in their studies. -- Publisher description
