Being Religiously Responsive to Australian Muslim Learners: Are there limits? Australian learners are super diverse (Hattam and Rigney, 2018). And learner diversity is super complex (Memon and Chown, 2018). Being culturally and religiously responsive to learner diversity is good teaching practice (AITSL, 2011) and equitable practice is a national education priority (Melbourne Declaration, 2008). But what does being religiously responsive mean and look like in practice? This public lecture will use Australian Muslim learners as a case example of the complexities of being culturally and religiously responsive. Attendees can anticipate leaving with practical school-based approaches of enacting religious responsiveness. A free lecture but please book here as there are limited tickets.
