Promoting Interfaith Education Through ICT–A Case Study

    Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

    Abstract

    Through a case study, this chapter analyzes how a Jewish teacher attempts to explain a Jewish religious concept to a Muslim university student, to illustrate how interfaith education can operate in practice. First, I will discuss interfaith education in general and its challenges; then I will describe the case and show how interfaith education can be taught through face-to-face lessons and through information and communication technology (ICT) and analyze different modes of learning. I will suggest a model for transmitting interfaith knowledge through ICT and then discuss the need for building a community of knowledge exchange in interfaith education.
