“…These four worldviews are Theism (one personal God as Creator/ Ruler), Naturalism/Materialism (only material world exists), Pantheism (God is in everything), and Deism (one Creator/Ruler God who is not personal). Sire (2020), in his seventh edition, attempts to catalogue all the major organized worldviews that are broadly practiced in the United States. His most broad partitioning of worldviews practiced by Americans includes the following eight distinct worldviews: Christian Theism, Deism, Naturalism, Moralistic Therapeutic Deism, Nihilistic Postmodern Within the organized worldview framework, the theoretical Integrative Worldview Framework (IWF) suggests five worldview-aspects as a way to describe any proposed organized worldview.…”

“…There are many other ways to practice Eastern Pantheism, so this is a limiting factor when attempting to provide a comprehensive mapping of organized worldviews. See Table 2 for an example of doing a IWF mapping of the major worldviews of the U.S. per Sire (2020).…”

“…Thus, the IWF mapping that will be provided below is meant to be a guide for helping individuals explore what they believe, not as an absolute “box” that people will be forced to comply with. It is difficult to comprehensively catalogue all organized worldviews onto this framework since worldviews “always occur in a specific context and are susceptible to various forms of expression depending on the culture of origin and the culture in which they are practiced” (Sire, 2020, p. 235). For example, Hinduism practiced in Southern California will likely not look the same as Hinduism that is practiced in a small village in Nepal.…”

The purpose of this paper is to provide a future research agenda to study how worldviews impact financial attitudes and behaviors. In addition, this paper will help operationalize many of the constructs associated with an individual's values and personal worldview. As a result of this research agenda, researchers and financial planners will move towards developing personal value and worldview identification tools that will help individuals more intrinsically adopt savings goals that help meet their life goals.

Concepts of God and Models of the God–world relation

There is a variety of concepts of the divine in the eastern and western theological and philosophical traditions. There is, however, not enough reflection on the logic behind concepts of God and their justification. I clarify some necessary and sufficient conditions any attempt to explicate a concept of God has to take into account. I argue that each concept of God is a cypher for a particular worldview and distinguishes three types of justification frequently used to bestow content on particular concepts of God: philosophical, theological, and scientific. I turn to four fundamental models of the God–world relation and argue that the most promising concept of God is panentheistic, on which the universe is essentially divine but is not exhaustive of the divine being.

Student-Centric Perspectives of the ‘Why’ and ‘How’ of Fostering Global Competence in Education

In today’s interconnected world, students must do more than just respect other cultures; they must also grasp global issues to become truly globally competent. This study explored students’ perspectives on the “why” and “how” of promoting global competence. Utilizing a descriptive qualitative approach, five themes were discovered through analysis of primary and secondary data sources, including virtual interview transcripts of 13 class leaders in the Purposive Communication course, essays, reports, and journals. Three themes emerged concerning the “why” of promoting global competence: gateway to career opportunities, inspiring a sense of social responsibility, and nurturing intercultural relationships. As for the “how,” two themes surfaced: the use of technology-infused strategies (TIS) and non-digital methods (NDM). These themes comprehensively addressed the three core aspects of global competence: knowledge, skills, and attitudes. The findings of this study can provide the basis for integrating global competence into the General Education Curriculum’s course objectives or outcomes. Additionally, they offer valuable insights for creating instructional materials to enhance global competence.
