Religious education : a conceptual and interdisciplinary approach for secondary level.

El libro analiza los debates surgidos entorno a la enseñanza de la religión y plantea un nuevo enfoque en la educación de la religión no basado en la fe y que se centra en los factores conceptuales y en el desarrollo de una pedagogía clara. El libro se basa en el modelo de aprendizaje 'Living Difference' desarrollado en Hampshire y adoptado en diferentes partes del Reino Unido. Proporciona la base para el desarrollo del pensamiento sobre la enseñanza de la religión, su lugar en el currículo educativo y cómo se puede implantar eficazmente en las escuelas.

Citizenship through religious education.

Cumple con todos los requisitos exigidos por el curriculum nacional inglés de 2009 para la materia de Ciudadanía en el primer ciclo de secundaria (KS3). El libro trata de responder a estas y otras cuestiones: ¿Cómo impacta la religión en la vida del Reino Unido hoy? ¿Qué lugar hay para la religión en la vida pública de la nación hoy? ¿Debería la ley favorecer una religión sobre otras? ¿Qué deberían enseñar las escuelas sobre religión? ¿Qué dice la ley sobre discriminación religiosa en el trabajo?.

How students view the boundaries between their science and religious education concerning the origins of life and the universe

Internationally in secondary schools, lessons are typically taught by subject specialists, raising the question of how to accommodate teaching which bridges the sciences and humanities. This is the first study to look at how students make sense of the teaching they receive in two subjects (science and religious education) when one subject’s curriculum explicitly refers to cross-disciplinary study and the other does not. Interviews with 61 students in seven schools in England suggested that students perceive a permeable boundary between science and their learning in science lessons and also a permeable boundary between religion and their learning in RE lessons, yet perceive a firm boundary between science lessons and RE lessons. We concluded that it is unreasonable to expect students to transfer instruction about cross-disciplinary perspectives across such impermeable subject boundaries. Finally we consider the implications of these findings for the successful management of cross-disciplinary education.

Patterns of Religious Education Policy in Switzerland. The Long Arm of Distanced Christians?

In spite of its different cantonal jurisdictions and traditions, the development of religious education in Switzerland over the past decade has taken a common direction: the state has assumed a more active role in the field of religious education in public (state-run) schools. In this article, we ask the question: How do key social actors interpret these reforms and how do these interpretations relate to the social structure of religion in Switzerland, in particular with respect to the majority category of the so-called distanced Christians? Drawing on qualitative interviews with members of the schools’ teaching staff, school administrators, and church representatives, the article highlights a dominant interpretative pattern that frames the socially accepted representation of religion in public schools. Thus, rather than addressing the pedagogical dimension of religious education, we discuss the significance of this pattern for the debate on the public presence of religion in Switzerland and Europe.
