Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This paper aims to present a brief but comprehensive review of the relation, attitudes and views of this nation's leaders, civic, educational and religious, in connection with the inclusion or religious training in the public schools. It is only fair to admit that this study will endeavor to prove that some sort of religious education, whether it be under the domain of the family, the school or the Church, is necessary for the spiritual and social well-being of our future citizens, and, consequently, of our nation. This paper cannot help by point in that direction because the fruits of research, under the light of objectivity and a dispassionate weighing of the evidence, consistently show a deep anxiety for the spiritual, moral development of our youth and a deep resolve that something must be done about this grievous omission in the development of the whole child...Furthermore, this study will, it is hoped, shed light on certain pertinent questions intrinsically bound up with the problem at hand. These questions need not be specifically enunciated in the main body of this essay, but they will be evident indirectly through a necessarily brief discussion of various aspects of the problem facing the nation. These are the questions. What do our nation's leaders say concerning religious education? Can religious training of the youth remain solely the problem of the home and Church, or must the public schools adopt the task? What is the place of religion in the public schools? Is there a real need today for religious education? What are the main objections to the inclusion of religious education in the public schools? What is the historical picture of religious education? What major plans have been proposed? Has the American principle of separation of Church and state been correctly and justly interpreted? Is character training and moral training synonymous? Is a solution favorable to all possible? What is the opinion of the Catholic Church?"--Leaves 2-4.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text presents a comparative, cross-cultural analysis of the legal status of religion in public education in eighteen different nations while offering recommendations for the future improvement of religious education in public schools. Offering rich, analytical insights from a range of renowned scholars with expertise in law, education, and religion, this volume provides detailed consideration of legal complexities impacting the place of religion and religious education in public education. The volume pays attention to issues of national and international relevance including the separation of the church and state; public funding of religious education; the accommodation of students’ devotional needs; and compulsory religious education. The volume thus highlights the increasingly complex interplay of religion, law, and education in diverse educational settings and cultures across developing and developed nations. Providing a valuable contribution to the field of religious secondary education research, this volume will be of interest to researchers, academics, and educators with an interest in religion and law, international and comparative education, and those involved with educational policy at all levels. Those more broadly interested in moral and values education will also benefit from the discussions the book contains.

Download or read book Religious Education in a Plural Secularised Society A Paradigm Shift written by Leni Franken and published by Waxmann Verlag. This book was released on 2011 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many European societies are characterised by increasing forms of secularisation and religious diversity. This results in a paradigm shift with regard to religious education. For a long time, the main aim of religious education was, clearly, to educate children in their own religious tradition. Today, the aims of religious education are much broader: contributing to pupils’ general education (Allgemeinbildung) and preparing them for participation as a citizen in the future, multicultural society. As a result, the following question arises in many countries: how can ‘teaching into religion’ be transformed into or complemented by ‘learning about’ and ‘learning from (the study of) religions’? This book brings several distinguished authors in the field of religious education together to reflect on this paradigm shift. The book is divided into two parts. The first part is rather descriptive and gives an informative and up to date overview of the different discussions about religious education in several European countries. The second part is a normative reflection on the question of how religious education should be organised in plural secularised societies. “This book is very important for the discussion about religious education. Its comparative approach combined with the interdisciplinary dialogue between the different schools in the field of religious education, make this book highly recommendable for everyone who is interested in the state of the art and the future of religious education in Europe.” Didier Pollefeyt, full professor in theology and religious education at the Catholic University of Leuven
