Download or read book Early Childhood Education for Muslim Children written by Hasina Banu Ebrahim and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-06 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early Childhood Education for Muslim Children foregrounds the marginalised perspective of Muslim children aged three to five and examines how they are cared for and educated in centre-based provision in two provinces in post-apartheid South Africa. Both theological and social science perspectives are carefully interwoven to make sense of the construction of service provision for Muslims as a minority group in a secular democracy. This book uses a qualitative, reflexive approach to amplify the voices of mothers, managers and teachers as the community of agents who shape priorities for young children in the context of a rapidly transforming society. The research demonstrates that the quest to establish an appropriate care network and a sound educative environment for Muslim children is riddled with complexities, struggles and tensions. In the light of changes in the home-based network for early education, centre-based provision has become an important infrastructure for Muslim communities seeking one-stop academic and Islamic education. The internal struggles encountered in this form of provision include inequities in access, struggles to package an appropriate curriculum, and dealing with nurturance specific to the faith and for cultural formations supportive of citizenship. This book calls for critical engagement with issues of religious education in early childhood, social cohesion, formal systematic teacher education for Muslim teachers, curriculum development and parental support. It will contribute not only to the development of early education from an Islamic perspective, but will also demonstrate how to expand discourses and practices to deal with diversity and faith development in early years. As such, it will appeal to academics, researchers and postgraduate students in the fields of early childhood education, religious studies, race and ethnic studies, and childhood studies

Download or read book Islamic Religious Education in Ireland written by Youcef Sai and published by Peter Lang Limited, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 2020 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Islam is the fastest growing religion in Ireland. Given the debate over the role of faith-based schools in secular societies in the twenty-first century, this book provides deeper insight and understanding into the role of ethos and the teaching and learning of Islamic religious knowledge (IRE) in two primary Irish state-funded Muslim schools. Based on data from Muslim parents, teachers and principals in two Muslim Irish schools, through semi-structured interviews and class observations, this study revealed significant variations in how IRE was delivered but also in how the ethos was manifested and experienced by Muslim pupils. The findings further demonstrated a strong link between the schools' ethos and parents' rationale for choosing Muslim schools for their children. This study also showed the various roles enacted by the IRE teachers as autonomous interpreters, transmitters and negotiators of Islamic knowledge which all had an impact on the choice of content in the classroom. In the wider debate on Muslim schools in Europe, this book challenges the claims made that they are breeding grounds for indoctrination and extremism, and that just as Muslim schools cannot be viewed in homogenous terms neither can the views of their stakeholders"--

Download or read book Reaching for the Sky written by Stella el Bouayadi-van de Wetering and published by Brill Rodopi. This book was released on 2012 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Young people have to make their own way in the world; they have to give meaning to and find meaning in their lives. This is the field of religious education, which is provided by parents, religious leaders, or teachers of religion and worldviews. One of the most important challenges is to educate children in their own religion, emphasizing that religion's tolerant and peaceful side and to teach children about the beliefs of other traditions. An even more important challenge is to teach them to live together in peace and justice. This volume deals with religious education in Christianity and Islam in specific countries. Scholars in religious education need to know more about the ways in which Muslims and Christians perceive and practice their respective forms of religious education and explore methods that help young people develop their religious identity in accordance with their tradition—and also meet with comrades from other traditions, as the two young Gambian and Dutch women shown on the cover do.This volume explores the field of Christian and Islamic education. Muslim and Christian scholars from Egypt, Lebanon, Turkey, Indonesia, Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands describe various aspects of religious education at school, at home, in the mosque and church, via the media and in peer groups. The papers were presented and discussed at an authors' conference at VU University Amsterdam, organized in close collaboration between the staff of its Centre of Islamic Theology and other scholars in religious education, and the Islamic Universities League in Cairo. The authors describe actual processes of education, reflect on religious identity formation and respect for other people and the influences from home, school, mosque, and church, the media and “the street.”
Download or read book Educating the Muslims of America written by Yvonne Y Haddad and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009-02-26 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the U.S. Muslim population continues to grow, Islamic schools are springing up across the American landscape. Especially since the events of 9/11, many have become concerned about what kind of teaching is going on behind the walls of these schools, and whether it might serve to foster the seditious purposes of Islamist extremism. The essays collected in this volume look behind those walls and discover both efforts to provide excellent instruction following national educational standards and attempts to inculcate Islamic values and protect students from what are seen as the dangers of secularism and the compromising values of American culture. Also considered here are other dimensions of American Islamic education, including: new forms of institutions for youth and college-age Muslims; home-schooling; the impact of educational media on young children; and the kind of training being offered by Muslim chaplains in universities, hospitals, prisons, and other such settings. Finally the authors look at the ways in which Muslims are rising to the task of educating the American public about Islam in the face of increasing hostility and prejudice. This timely volume is the first dedicated entirely to the neglected topic of Islamic education.
Download or read book Religious Diversity at School written by Ednan Aslan and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-04-11 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume features chapters by international experts in education, sociology, and theology who consider a range of challenges faced by educators in primary and secondary schools that are becoming increasingly diverse in terms of the ethnic and religious backgrounds of pupils. From the non-religious, to the refugee, to student fundamentalism and even radicalization—these multiple, fresh approaches analyze the dynamics of the changing pedagogical landscape in an age of ever increasing globalization and cultural plurality. Today’s classrooms are often the most crucial spaces where children and adolescents encounter new cultural, religious, and other worldviews. Increasingly, teachers are called on to empower their pupils with the tools and competencies necessary to reflect on and process this plurality in ways that are productive for their intellectual growth and moral maturation. Regional case studies provide extensive data while offering insights into developments in school settings across Europe, in Turkey, and in the United States. In addition, a number of the contributions address the delivery, content, and policies of Islamic Religious Education in European contexts, the educational strategies employed in multi-religious societies, and interreligious dialogue in schools, whether intentional or spontaneous.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Childhood Education in Islam and Christianity discusses issues of religious education that the two world religions Christianity and Islam offer to their respective young children as religion or faith that lead beliefs, virtues and lifestyle for the faithful beginning in the child's tender age. The book is written with awareness that for many observers of religion, the landscape of Christianity and Islam is filled with suspicion, hatred, violent armed confrontations that characterize encounters between Islam and Christianity in Africa, North America, Europe, Middle East, Central and East Asia. Terrorism, intelligence and counter-intelligence accompanied by bombing and destruction have become the order of the from history and media perspective. It is impossible to identify the difference between religion and politics, economics, government, and militarism. It is impossible to find an area in the field of human existence that is not affected by religious interests of these two religions. This book examines praxis aspects of the religion that Islam and Christianity teach and practice, in the madrassahs and Sunday schools, of the mosque and the church, based in Nairobi city as a creative frontier Christian-Muslim encounter seen from the eyes and heard from voices of young children, their teachers and religious programme directors for and on behalf of Muslim and Christian children. The book seeks to answer the questions "What do Christians and Muslims teach as religious faith? How do they teach it? How are the faith lessons perceived by the learner? What issues concerning religion would members of one religious group like clarification about the other?" The aim of the book is to get to the core of children's religious education for Islam and Christian beyond the rambling of the media creation of wars between Christianity and Islam, the Church and the Mosque, who could be innocent neighbours in one way or another. Knowing facts is a must for the reader of this book.
Download or read book Canadian Islamic Schools written by Jasmin Zine and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2008-11-29 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religious schooling in Canada has been a controversial subject since the secularization of the public school system, but there has been little scholarship on Islamic education. In this ethnographic study of four full-time Islamic schools, Jasmin Zine explores the social, pedagogical, and ideological functions of these alternative, and religiously-based educational institutions. Based on eighteen months of fieldwork and interviews with forty-nine participants, Canadian Islamic Schools provides significant insight into the role and function that Islamic schools have in Diasporic, Canadian, educational, and gender-related contexts. Discussing issues of cultural preservation, multiculturalism, secularization, and assimiliation, Zine considers pertinent topics such as the Eurocentricism of Canada's public schools and the social reproduction of Islamic identity. She further examines the politics of piety, veiling, and gender segregation paying particular attention to the ways in which gendered identities are constructed within the practices of Islamic schools and how these narratives shape and inform the negotiation of gender roles among both boys and girls. A fascinating and informative study of religious-based education, Canadian Islamic Schools is essential reading for educators, sociologists, as well as those interested in Immigration and Diaspora Studies.

Download or read book Migration Religion and Early Childhood Education written by Ednan Aslan and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-08 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although it is rarely given sufficient consideration in either scholarly or political debates, early childhood education plays a crucial role in the integration process of young immigrants in European countries, since it not only enables the children to be integrated into society, both linguistically and culturally, but it also provides their parents with the opportunity, through their children, to view the society more directly and to reflect on their own values in the encounter, or to potentially seek new orientations. The quality of young migrants’ educational achievements, which have repeatedly caused current political debates in European countries, should not be considered independently of the elementary education measures since they are very closely related. Prof. Dr. Ednan Aslan is Chair of Islamic Religious Education at the Institute for Islamic Theological Studies at the University of Vienna.
