"This Is a Head, Hearts, and Hands Enterprise": Adult Learning in Interfaith Dialogue
Pope, Elizabeth M.
Adult Education Quarterly: A Journal of Research and Theory, v70 n3 p205-222 Aug 2020
The purpose of this study was to examine an interfaith dialogue group to understand how adults learn through such an environment. In this qualitative case study, I worked with a group of Jewish, Christian, and Muslim adults located in the southeastern United States. In investigating adult learning through interfaith dialogue, I found that members experience communicative, instrumental, relational, personal, and transformative learning. The findings from this study may help practitioners in both participating in and facilitating interfaith dialogue groups with the intent of learning about other religious traditions. It may also benefit scholars in providing an understanding of how these groups can be intentional learning environments.
