Over 80 participants from all over the world registered to listen to panelists reflect on teaching faithfully in STEM with David I. Smith, Director of the Kuyers Institute for Christian Teaching and Learning. David I. Smith’s award-winning 2018 book On Christian Teaching challenged instructors to consider how Christian faith can inform not only the content of our teaching, but also our pedagogical choices. Several faculty members from two universities subsequently considered how faith should shape their teaching in STEM fields such as biology, computer science, engineering, mathematics, and nursing, resulting in a co-authored journal article. What challenges were posed for them as Christian teachers? How are they attempting to answer them in their teaching? What is the Christian rationale behind their pedagogical choices?
