Abstract

Teaching Religion and Worldviews Education (RWE) Creatively offers a fresh perspective on the Religious Education (RE) curriculum. This second edition is crammed full of practical lesson ideas underpinned by cutting edge research authored by specialists in the field. It helps teachers understand what constitutes an effective and creative RWE curriculum, and challenges teachers to view RWE as a transformatory subject that offers learners the tools to be discerning, to work out their own beliefs and to answer puzzling questions.

This second edition of Teaching Religion and Worldviews Education Creatively includes fully updated chapters from the first edition with 11 new contributors and five brand new chapters. New topics include:
- visits, visitors and persona dolls
- the RE Searchers approach
- new ideas about policy, practice and assessment
- insights into RE in the UK and around the world
- anti discriminatory RE
- new and updated practical classroom ideas from practicing teachers.

Teaching Religion and Worldviews Education Creatively is for all teachers who want to learn more about innovative teaching and learning in RWE in order to improve understanding, knowledge and enjoyment, while at the same time transforming their own as well as their pupils’ lives.

Sally Elton-Chalcraft is Professor of Social Justice in Education and Director of the Learning Education and Development Research Centre, University of Cumbria, UK, researching into RE and anti-racism. Sally is co-editor for the widely used Professional Studies in Primary Education (2022) 4th ed London-Sage. Cooper, H. and Elton-Chalcraft, S. (eds).
