PROS
The books takes a balanced view of teaching religious education (within the English curriculum context), set through three important lenses: theological, philosophical and social sciences.
The book is then split into six pedagogically important areas, focused for teaching religious education: challenge; explanation; modelling; practice; feedback, and; questioning.
Within the chapters, Louise and Dawn highlight a repertoire of pedagogical strategies that can support teachers discussing many moral and ethical subjects that cross different religious points of view.
Many pedagogical strategies are explored in the book, offering a signpost for teachers to explore further if relevant to their classroom.
This is a really useful book for secondary teachers who support religious education in their school, underpinned by the six principles that should be evident in any sequence of teaching.
