Religious Instruction in the "Post-Truth" World (Guest: Dr Jennifer Bleazby)

In many jurisdictions in Australian, public schools are allowed or even required to offer students religious instruction classes. In recent years, this practice has become more controversial. With me to talk about religious instruction in the public schools is Dr Jennifer Bleazby, a Senior Lecturer at Monash University.

You can learn more about Dr Bleazby's work at her Monash University staff page.

Dr Bleazby's recent journal article 'Religious instruction in the post-truth world: A critique of Australia’s controversial religious instruction classes in public schools' can be found here.
