IDEALS Research Team

Brilliant Steering Group meeting yesterday, chaired by @faithbelieforum's @TimMortimer. Fantastic conversations about case study and social media with academics, HE staff, @ParliaMentors graduates and religious leaders with an expertise in faith and belief on campus.

We're bringing the USA @IDEALSresearch to the UK to explore how uni campus climates enable or impede positive relationships among students of different faiths and worldview perspectives, including varieties of faith, spirituality and non-religion #IDEALSUK #research #HigherEd

The analysis on religion course-taking decisions is in the @IDEALSresearch data set, if you're interested in teaching about religion, religious literacy, interfaith work, and/or religious, secular, and spiritual identities and #HigherEd you should check out IDEALS /2
