An essential compendium for practitioners and researchers which makes accessible in one place original and innovative research originally published in the British Journal of Religious Education over a fifteen-year period. The twenty chapters demonstrate the contribution made to religious education by ethnographic fieldwork, practitioner research, life-history approaches to research, psychological scales and measures, and large surveys. Topics covered include teacher education and teacher experience, student understanding, attitudes and values, varieties of religious schooling, and worldview and life interpretation. The book draws together papers published during Professor Robert Jackson's term as Editor.
