Book Description
Have you struggled with teaching children the Christian Faith? Have you tried - and failed - to get children interested using the latest curriculum from the church publishing house, with the latest graphics, charts, worksheets, quizzes, and interactive multimedia? Have you struggled to keep children interested in learning the faith - and then struggle after confirmation to keep them in the faith? You are NOT alone! The problem isn't that the materials don't use enough of the latest trends in education, and the latest technology to drum up interest. Those things are the problem! And Holy Scripture can give us a picture of what a successful catechism program in the church should look like. So this book starts with Holy Scripture. Then, we look at the last 2000 years - sometimes it goes well, sometimes its a struggle. But we can learn from the great teachers of the past. They can show us what works and what doesn't. We don't need to lurch from failing trend to failing trend. Catechetics: Fixing Confirmation takes a deep look at our assumptions about instruction, shows where we went wrong, and gives the tools to find a solution that works.

Partners in Wisdom and Grace
Author: Marylin T. Kravatz
Publisher: University Press of America
ISBN: 0761849386
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 183
Book Description
Creative tension calls for a dialogical conversation in order to find mutual ground that can be beneficial for both partners. Partners in Wisdom and Grace explores the possibility of such tension created by the absence of religious education as a dialogical partner in the National Directory for Catechesis published by the U.S. Bishops in 2005. These queries are central: Will catechesis take religious education as a conversation partner? And, will religious education return the favor? This book concludes that catechesis and religious education remain distinct enterprises that have their own specific identities and make their own particular contributions toward educating for a religious way of life. This is an invitation for catechesis and religious education to generate a continuous healthy dialogue and mutually enrich each other while maintaining their distinct identities. Book jacket.

Basics of Religious Education
Author: Martin Rothgangel
Publisher: V&R Unipress
ISBN: 3847002651
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 416
Book Description
This volume offers an introduction to all questions of teaching Religious Education as a school subject and as an academic discipline related to this subject. The chapters cover most of the aspects that religion teachers have to face in their work, as well as the theoretical background necessary for this task. The volume is a textbook for students and teachers of religious education, be it in school or in an academic context, who are looking for reliable information on this field. The book has proven its usefulness in German speaking countries. This volume is the English translation of the German Compendium of Religious Education (edited by Gottfried Adam and Rainer Lachmann). The present English version is based on the 2012 edition which aims for a most current representation of the field. The background of the book is Protestant but its outlook is clearly ecumenical, and questions of interreligious education are considered in many of the chapters. The compendium continues to be widely used in Germany, Austria and Switzerland – as an introduction to the field and as a handbook for students who are preparing for their final exams. The English edition makes this compendium available to students and colleagues in other countries.

Religious Knowledge and Positioning
Author: David Käbisch
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3110798638
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
What should one know in order to position oneself vis-à-vis other religions and confessions? What is religious knowledge and how should it be taught? This volume sheds light on educational media in Judaism and Christianity such as catechisms, children’s bibles, and sermons as well as Jewish and Protestant teacher training in 19th-century Germany and explores the methodological potentials of educational media as a source for (inter-)religious history. It reflects on broader processes of knowledge production and the impact of science and scholarship on religious edu-cation and knowledge production within Christian and Jewish contexts. The volume draws on an interdisciplinary conference that took place in 2018 and brought together scholars associated with two transdisciplinary research projects: The German-Israeli research group “Innovation through Tradition? Jewish Educational Media and Cultural Transformation in the Face of Moder-nity”, associated with the German Historical Institute Washington and Tel Aviv University (funded by the German Research Foundation, DFG, 2014–2019), and the LOEWE research hub “Religious Positioning: Modalities and Constellations in Jewish, Christian and Muslim Contexts” at Goethe University Frankfurt and Justus-Liebig-University Giessen (funded by the Hessian Ministry of Science and Art, 2015–2021).
