In this episode of the Biblical Languages Podcast, Kevin interviews David Miller, author of "Greek Pedagogy in Crisis", about his doctoral research concerning the Grammar-Translation Method for teaching the biblical languages.
David has committed most of his education and career to spiritual growth and personal development in the church and in higher education. He has earned a B.A. from Moody Bible Institute, an M.A./M.Div. from Columbia International University, and a Th.M. and Ed.D. from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. His goal is to encourage Christians to live passionately for Christ and strive to know Him better each day. David lives with his wife, Alayna, and their two children in North Carolina. His doctoral work focused on the educational process of language-learning.
Here's a snapshot of what you can expect in this conversation:
- David's doctoral research focused on biblical language pedagogy using the "Grammar-Translation Method" (GTM)
- The crisis facing biblical language pedagogy in seminaries and other higher education institutions
- What the Grammar-Translation Method is, its primary outcomes, and some of its major weaknesses
- Alternatives to the Grammar-Translation Method and how to move forward as a field
- And much more!
