This audio lecture series is very good. Though I had encountered a variety of positions on inerrancy through works such as Millard Erikson’s “Christian Theology,” it was nice to hear different scholars give a fuller presentation on the subject than what I had read before.
Michael Bird and Kevin Vanhoozer’s perspectives in particular were really interesting. If you are looking to expand the parameters of your personal theological understanding, or find ways to think creatively about inerrancy (which can be a rigid subject), these audio lectures are worthwhile.

Created for a video format

Revisado: 06-18-19

I was drawn to this course because I myself teach social studies at the high school level. Because Dr. Allitt also teaches history, I figured I could pick up a few content-related teaching strategies. I was not disappointed.
This course was developed to be versatile and useful for many teaching content areas though. I’m certain that I would have learned something even if I was a math or science teacher too.

Biggest things to be aware of:

1. The brunt of the content is directed towards teachers engaged in college seminar classes with lecture style. With the exception of maybe a few lessons, I don’t suppose much of this class would be relevant to a highly differentiated elementary classroom.

2. There are several parts of the audiobook which are almost comical because the teaching company clearly used the audio from their visual course and put it out as an audiobook. For the most part, this is not a big deal. However, there are several parts where Dr. Allitt will be interviewing people, the audio will make a break, and the narrator will switch. There are also parts where Dr. Allitt will refer to an image and direct your attention to a PowerPoint or image as well, which is obviously not there in this format.

Overall though, I really enjoyed this production. Dr. Allitt has several unique insights which are helpful and engaging. I definitely recommend this for anyone who is interested in expanding their pedagogy.

Excellent Course

I found this course to be very helpful and to the point. Dr. Rendsburg explores several different interpretations and translations of Genesis and is enjoyable to listen to. The way he weaves the history and literature of numerous cultures together is also very impressive. This has definitely been one of my favorite Great Courses–I highly recommend it.

Beautiful Book

This book was excellent. Amor Towles developed his characters very well. I felt connected to the story and was so satisfied to have listened to this book.
