How Teachers in Europe Teach Religion

An International Empirical Study in 16 Countries

In 2007, 3,500 teachers in sixteen European countries participated in a cross-cultural study "Teaching Religion in a multicultural Europe." The empirical survey researches existing teaching procedures in religion and theology. The book presents the results which are different approaches, strategies, and ways of thinking when it comes to teaching religion in a multicultural context.

For example, female teachers tended to endorse methods of teaching such as
doing roleplays, drawing/painting pictures, listening to music, working with the
internet during class, praying, and singing songs more so than did male teachers.
