Thesis (Ph.D.)--Boston College, 2005.

The primary aim of this dissertation is to analyze, critique, and discern the role and potential impact of computer-mediated communications, particularly the Internet, on contemporary faith formation efforts. The study is an interdisciplinary effort grounded in a theoretical examination of what it has meant to be fashioned and formed within religious contexts, particularly Christianity. It is informed by Media Ecology, which recognizes the environmental influences of media and utilizes an ecological framework with systemic, communal and personal characteristics to compare physical and virtual formation processes. Enculturating communities of faith infused with I-Thou type relationships developed through sustained, critical, dialogical interaction by and between critically-reflective actively-engaged individual emerge as crucial catalysts of personal conversion and social transformation. By evaluating six web sites, the study documents practical approaches for and the limitations of using the Internet to form people in faith. The study recommends the development of complementary multi-sensory, interactive faith-formation opportunities that include both physical and virtual environments.

520 $a The primary aim of this dissertation is to analyze, critique, and discern the role and potential impact of computer-mediated communications, particularly the Internet, on contemporary faith formation efforts. The study is an interdisciplinary effort grounded in a theoretical examination of what it has meant to be fashioned and formed within religious contexts, particularly Christianity. It is informed by Media Ecology, which recognizes the environmental influences of media and utilizes an ecological framework with systemic, communal and personal characteristics to compare physical and virtual formation processes.

520 $a Part One assumes that fashioning-a-people occurs in a physical place. Set within the contemporary United States, it identifies a complex constellation of paradigms and paradigm shifts operative as communities attempt to reach potential, inactive, uncatechized, and active members, as well as new initiates and those who desire deeper connections. It taps religious educators John Westerhoff, Maria Harris and Thomas Groome, along with feminist Biblical scholar Elisabeth Schussler Fiorenza to identify the systemic, communal, and personal components of an ecological framework operative when fashioning-a-people and highlights the essential role of a designated individual or group who intentionally design multi-sensory, multi-generational, multi-modal experiences of faith-filled story-making and story-keeping. Part Two asks whether or not these features translate into media environments. It traces the four eras of human communication and the Christian community's utilization of various media. Highlighting the ritual and performative aspects of human communications, it identifies roles for enculturating communities, religious educators, and collaborative teams that capitalize on the opportunities and counter the constraints of computer-mediated communications.
