Spotlight on Teaching is a major teaching and learning initiative of the AAR and its Committee on Teaching and Learning. Over the last several years, it has become a principal venue for exploring opportunities and challenges in teaching and learning about religions. Spotlight appears in Religious Studies News twice a year as a member benefit. Each issue focuses on a particular theme, concern, or setting. Archived issues dating back to 1999 can be found here.
