Practical Theology

Practical Theology: Religious Education and Didactics deals with the psychological and socio-cultural conditions of learning religion. It works out elementary education tasks of religious education in school and develops a competence-oriented organisation of school-based and extra-curricular learning of Christian religion in the face of religious plurality.

We especially focus on the development of interfaith learning in denominational religious education.

Acquiring the social, cultural and religious surroundings by way of learning is made possible by multimedia. The critically review and evaluation of media occurrences of religion and a media-pedagogically interlinked exploration of the methodical use of text, sound, and visual media in organised processes of learning religion in practical terms is of religious didactic interest in research and teaching.
