Introduction
"Know religion (s) - develop spirituality - learn to live relationships" - this is the motto of the new curricula for the teaching degree courses in Catholic religion for primary and secondary levels.
The new courses offer the opportunity to acquire in-depth knowledge of the Christian faith and the importance of Christianity in Europe. In dealing with values and traditions of other religions, competencies in intercultural-interreligious dialogue are acquired.
The new courses are about the connection of life-relevant theological knowledge with religious-pedagogical and religious-didactic knowledge. With reference to the spiritual traditions of Christianity and the pedagogy of mindfulness, the new religious education courses enable an exercise in grounded and cosmopolitan forms of spiritual solidarity, which lead to an appreciative attitude towards all living things.
