This set of interviews with a dozen scholars from across the academic disciplines and theologians provides a window into cutting-edge pedagogies surrounding the the themes of religion technology and human presence. The courses and pedagogical strategies that we discuss in this series emerge from a variety of settings—from liberal arts colleges to research universities. This limited series is designed to help educators scholars and journalists think about how to teach and communicate about these complex and entangled elements of contemporary society in ways that are compelling and meaningful. The interviews are a result of Public Theologies of Technology and Presence a research initiative based at the Institute for Buddhist Studies in Berkeley and funded by the Henry Luce Foundation.
