The place of religion in the modern world has changed significantly over the past two decades. This has been partially reflected in the academic study of religion, but little, if at all, in religious education. In addition, the place of RE in schools has been the subject of intense debate due to changes to the curriculum and school structure, as well as being part of wider debates on religion in the public sphere.
Written by two highly experienced leading practitioners of RE, Does Religious Education have a Future? argues for a radical reform of the subject based on principles of pedagogy set free from religious concerns. It challenges teachers, researchers and educators to rethink their approaches to, and assumptions about, religious education, and enables them to see their work in a larger context that includes pedagogical ideas and political forces.
The book offers readers fresh, provocative and expertly informed critical perspectives on:
the global context of RE, debates about religion in public places, religion's response to modernity, violent extremism, science and secularism;
the evolving educational rationale for RE in schools;
the legal arrangements for RE and their impact on the teaching of the subject;
the pedagogy of teaching approaches in RE and their effect on standards and perceptions of the subject;
the educational commitment of faith/belief communities, and how this influences the performance of RE.
Does Religious Education have a Future? proposes a new attitude to the subject of religious education, and a new configuration of both its role and content. This book is essential reading for academics, advisers and policy makers, as well as teachers of RE at primary and secondary levels and trainee and newly qualified teachers.

The pace of technological change has made the immediate and long-term future difficult, if not impossible, to predict. Teachers are forced to imagine the world they are preparing their students to live in. In this situation creativity becomes a vital resource for enabling uncertain futures to be embraced and an important attribute for students to have both for their learning and their employability in the future.
In this book, the authors argue that creativity is a social and collaborative process that can be enhanced through online and digital technologies. Filled with case studies and practical tasks, it shows teachers how they can develop an approach to teaching and learning with digital technologies that is inherently social, collaborative and creative. Including case studies and practical examples of projects and lessons throughout, the chapters cover:
Learning in a networked society
An examination of sharing practices and how knowledge can be shared more effectively
Potential pitfalls of virtual learning environments and public social networking sites
Using digital media to plan schemes of work and lessons
How to facilitate meaningful collaboration and discussion through digital media
Creating online environments to enable students to share their understandings and learning
Bringing together key ideas about creativity, collaborative learning and ICT in the classroom, this timely book will be an invaluable resource for all teachers.
