Curriculum Renewal for Islamic Education : Critical Perspectives on Teaching Islam in Primary and Secondary Schools Hardback

Hardback

Description

This book demonstrates why and how it is necessary to redesign Islamic Education curriculum in the K-12 sector globally.

From Western public schools that integrate Muslim perspectives to be culturally responsive, to public and private schools in Muslim minority and majority contexts that teach Islamic studies as a core subject or teach from an Islamic perspective, the volume highlights the unique global and sociocultural contexts that support the disparate trajectories of Islamic Education curricula.

Divided into three distinct parts, the text discusses current Islamic education curricula and considers new areas for inclusion as part of a general renewal effort that includes developing curricula from an Islamic worldview, and the current aspirations of Islamic education globally.

By providing insights on key concepts related to teaching Islam, case studies of curriculum achievements and pitfalls, and suggested processes and pillars for curriculum development, contributors present possibilities for researchers and educators to think about teaching Islam differently. This text will benefit researchers, doctoral students, and academics in the fields of secondary education, Islamic education, and curriculum studies.

Those interested in religious education as well as the sociology and theory of religion more broadly will also enjoy this volume.
