Star Wars & Pedagogy

In this bonus episode on Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005), Dr Andrew Mark Henry gives us a bit more insight into how he utilizes the Star Wars franchise to teach about the process of canonization, the human impulse to write spin-off literature (fan fiction) that we see in so many early Christian texts, and the usefulness of analogy to building understanding. He also talks to us about his approach to public education, and the thought process that goes into creating content for Religion For Breakfast (his hugely successful YouTube channel).


If you haven't listened to our main episode on Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith, we recommend doing so first, so you have the full context for our discussion. 


Many thanks to Dr. Henry for his extra time.
