Religion and water
Pedagogical intention: to deepen understanding of the religious meaning of water through knowledge of traditions, direct contact with believers from various religions, and artistic expression as a way of understanding and inner transformation.
The activity moves from conceptual analysis to experiential expression, and from the familiar to the discovery of the other.
The logic of the activity is recalled as: from knowing to understanding, from understanding to living.
Peace, social justice and inter religious dialogue
Pedagogical intention: to connect the learning from the previous activities with social and global reality, to
deepen understanding of the role of religions in building peace and environmental justice, and to close the course
with the design of specific teaching proposals that participants can bring to their classrooms. The activity moves
from understanding to engagement and, finally, to educational action.
Water in everyday life
Pedagogical intention: to place teachers in a direct experience of water as an everyday reality and, at the same time, as a gateway to symbolic interpretation. The activities are designed to bring about a transformation in the way reality is seen and interpreted, while identifying the pedagogical potential of these experiences for the religion classroom.
The central idea introduced is experience as a way of accessing knowledge and pedagogical transformation.
