This timely book delves into the critical issues and questions that arise in the teaching and learning of Islam in confessional and constructivist religious education contexts. Recognizing the implications of a lack of diversity in the Islamic Religious Education curriculum, the text also explores the challenges faced by Muslim pupils in relation to secularism and radical Islam.
Through a comprehensive analysis of research conducted across Muslim and public secondary schools in the UK, this book develops a meaningful pedagogy of Islamic Religious Education. In particular, the volume investigates the benefits of Critical Religious Education and Variation Theory frameworks on student learning in Religious Education classrooms and illustrates how these didactic frameworks can help to address distinct problems observed in Islamic Religious Education.
Chapters identify discrete pedagogical issues that arise in the confessional and constructivist approaches to Islamic Education, such as students' difficulties in relating to the concept of Islam, and progressive approaches taken in public schools. In addressing these, the text proposes a new theoretical and pedagogical approach to the teaching of Islam, drawing on the philosophy of Critical Realism, the theories of Critical Religious Education, and Variation Theory.
This book will be of great interest to postgraduate students, research scholars, and academics in the fields of religion and education, as well as Islamic studies. Additionally, it will hold significance for social equity professionals and public policy decision-makers.
