What about "Learning" in Practical Theological Studies? Toward More Conceptual Clarity
de Kock, A.
SAGE Open, v5 n2 Apr 2015
Because "learning" is an important concept in the reflection on young people in faith practices, practical theological studies on the theme of learning profit from a clarification of the concept of "learning." Therefore, current (empirical) research projects conducted by the Dutch Research Centre for Youth, Church, and Culture and educational and religious education literature on "learning" have been analyzed. The results provide an overview of utilized descriptions of learning, (theological) interpretations of learning, normative positions regarding learning, and strategic considerations toward (the promotion of) learning. Implications for future practical theological research into (faith) learning in the context of faith practices of young people are discussed.
