This course reviews a most basic question for Christian educators: “What is the nature of personhood?” The answer to this question has many implications for the assumptions that we carry into our teaching and learning practice. In this course, we look at the answer to this question from a biblical point of view (in contrast to other points of view), and then test out the implications for this in terms of the psychology of the teacher and student, and therefore the way teachers choose to relate to their students.
