Training the Teacher

The volume offers a practical course for preparing classroom leaders in religious education, combining four core sections: a systematic presentation of biblical material, a concise study of pupil development and learning, pedagogical principles with classroom application, and guidance on organizing and running the school. Additional chapters explain how the biblical canon developed and provide outlines of each biblical book, while appendices supply teaching hints, maps, and sample lesson material. Emphasis is on accessible content for new and experienced teachers, linking scriptural knowledge to age-appropriate methods and administrative practices for effective instruction.
