DESCRIPTION
This class aims to demystify what we mean by "theories" and "methods" in the study of religion, and to put our learning into practice through analysis and writing. Theory and method are closely connected concepts since one's abstract theory about what religion is will likely inform the methods they use to study it. We will explore "classic" approaches to the topic from the 19th–20th centuries as well as postmodern and contemporary critiques of these views, using the perspectives of gender, race, colonialism, and species. Although we are not learning about different religions per se, we will use sources from different perspectives, with an emphasis on the Indian tradition of Jainism, alongside other pop culture examples, to analyze how different approaches function. Students will ultimately practice using theories and methods in their own analysis of a contemporary issue from a religious perspective.
STUDENT LEARNING GOALS
This course has goals in Religious Studies as well as upper-level writing:
Religious Studies
Religious Studies
- Identify different explanatory theories for what "religion" is
- Distinguish various methods for studying manifestations of religion
- Critically analyze religious studies scholarship, identifying theories, methods, and assumptions
- Practice relevant writing skills, such as free-writing, analysis of an author's position and anticipation of objections
- Create Research Charts for your original analysis
- Formulate a thesis and organized paper draft in religious studies, including persuasive position points and anticipation of objections
- Revise the draft by reflecting on questions and critical comments
OPENING RECITATIONFamiliar things happen, and (hu)mankind does not bother about them. It requires a very unusual mind to undertake the analysis of the obvious.
— Alfred North Whitehead, Science and the Modern World: Lowell Lectures, 1925, 6. |

POLICIES
UCI COVID-19 RESPONSE CENTER
Student resources can be found here.
ADD/DROP DEADLINES
Students may DROP or ADD a course through 5:00 p.m. on Friday of the second full week of classes. https://www.reg.uci.edu/enrollment/adc/adcpolicy.html
ATTENDANCE POLICY
Attendance will begin after the drop/add deadline of October 8, 2021. After this date, all students can miss two classes without penalty. On the third absence, students will receive a one-time 5-point deduction, and an additional five-point deduction for every absence thereafter.
If you have an extended illness, extended family emergency, or extended immigration-related issue, please contact me as soon as you are able to and we will discuss a plan forward. Also, if something has kept you from reading or feeling prepared for class, please still come. You can always "pass" in discussion. So long as this is not a regular occurrence, your engaged presence will still benefit you, your peers, and our collective work.
ACADEMIC DISHONESTY AND PLAGIARISM
We are here to do the hard work of learning together. Academic dishonesty erodes this goal and your own self confidence. It is also a serious academic offense that can result in failing a paper, failing the class, and academic dismissal from the university.
Academic dishonesty includes, but is not limited to, plagiarism (copying words, phrases, or ideas from other authors/sources without giving citation credit), copying answers from another student, allowing another student to copy your answers, communicating exam answers to other students during an exam, attempting to use notes or other aids during an exam, or tampering with an exam after it has been corrected and then returning it for more credit. These actions are a violation of the UCI Policies on Academic Honesty. It is your responsibility to read and understand these policies. Note that any instance of academic dishonesty will be reported to the Academic Integrity Administrative Office for disciplinary action and is cause for a failing grade in the course.
Work in this class, such as quizzes, worksheets, and multi-part analyses, should be self-generated, rather than collaborative. Collaborative work will be noted specifically.

FOOD AND HOUSING INSECURITY
Any student who has difficulty affording groceries or accessing sufficient food to eat every day, or who lacks a safe and stable place to live, is urged to contact the FRESH Basic Needs Hub and the Basic Needs Coordinator, Andrea Gutierrez, at [email protected]. Also, please notify me if you are comfortable doing so. This will enable me to inform you of resources that might be of help. TECHNOLOGY IN THE CLASSROOM Disciplined use of devices for note taking or looking up information relevant to an immediate discussion in class is welcome. Checking out cat memes, texting, and personal email, while tempting, is not. It is evident to everyone when a colleague is checked out of class and into their device, and it lessens what the class can be as a whole. I prefer to leave this disciplined restraint to you, but will address it myself if needed. I will also do my best to facilitate an active learning environment whenever possible. LATE WORK POLICY The late policy will begin after the drop/add deadline of October 8, 2021. There is a one hour grace period on all assignments, except online quizzes, which must be completed by class time. After the drop/add deadline, a late assignments of up to 40 points will receive a one-time 3-point deduction; late assignments over 40 points will receive a one time 5-point deduction. All work is due by the last day of the final exam. |

WEEKLY SCHEDULE (and tips for class preparation)
Dear Students,
Your presence, participation, and growing confidence and skills are important to me this quarter. Here are some thoughts:
TIPS FOR CLASS PREPARATION:
Your presence, participation, and growing confidence and skills are important to me this quarter. Here are some thoughts:
- Readings and videos listed in the below schedule should be completed BEFORE coming to class (unless noted by "in-class").
- Remember that many new ideas come cumulatively over time. Be patient with yourself and know that feeling a little lost or unclear is part of the process of learning something new. Feel free to raise questions in class, send me a message, or let's meet if you want to gain clarity. Please consider the following tips as you prepare for class:
TIPS FOR CLASS PREPARATION:
- Take reading notes. In this class, we'll be doing Monday Summary Charts for all Monday readings, so notes are built in! You can also see "Resources" section above for a quick overview of 5 different approaches to note taking; or ask your friends how they do it
- Trouble following a reading? That's okay. Here are some alternatives to walking away exasperated:
- Pick one or two terms in the reading and look them up independently using online sources and just try to understand that term in its context; sharing this info in class will be edifying for us all
- Pick one figure named in the reading and look them up independently as in previous point . . . sharing this info in class will be edifying for us all
- Read the opening paragraph and see if you can identify the main point/s that will be covered
- Short on time? Here are some alternatives to skipping class for not doing readings:
- Read the opening paragraph and see if you can identify the main point/s that will be covered
- Read the section heading and the closing paragraph
- "Pass" in class discussion; a rare "pass" is perfectly acceptable so long as it does not happen regularly
