In this 1994 article Kenneth Kramer (1941-2019) writes about his approach of “unteaching” to teach introductory religious studies courses, which involves more student engagement and peer to peer learning. Kramer posits that, “by approaching World Religions through sacred texts, and sacred texts through stories, the unteaching dynamic is given a structured content.” Our editorial team found this piece worth considering alongside recent calls for “ungrading” and reflexive reading in the religious studies classroom. This article was originally published in The Council on the Study of Religion Bulletin 15.4.
