Sacred Course
Sacred Concepts and Rituals Course equips humanities educators with essential tools to examine sacred sites, ceremonies, and artefacts from different cultures. It transforms these into impactful, ethical lesson plans using authentic ethnographic examples, multimedia materials, and straightforward comparative approaches. Participants gain hands-on skills to design engaging 60-90 minute classes, analyse rituals in everyday contexts linking power, gender, and hierarchy, apply fieldwork ethics like interviews and observation, source scholarly and museum materials accurately, and compare key theorists such as Durkheim, Eliade, and Geertz.
