Ingress: Artikkelen tar utgangspunkt i en kvalitativ studie blant ungdom i alderen 15-19 år i Groruddalen. Datamaterialet viser at de unge vurderer religion som et av skolens viktigste fag. De formidler at religionsfaget bidrar med kunnskap som er viktig for å forstå og respektere den enkeltes religiøse tilhørighet og verdigrunnlag og at faget er identitetsdannende. Det åpner for kommunikasjon mellom ulike religioner, og blir vurdert som et viktig bidrag til å forstå en global verden. Elevenes utsagn blir analysert i lys av en modell over ulike virkelighetsdimensjoner i religionsdidaktikken, utviklet av Leganger-Krogstad (2013). Det teoretiske rammeverket bygger på ulike kunnskapsdiskurser relatert til Bernsteins begreper om horisontale og vertikale diskurser, og Aristoteles’ begreper om episteme, techne og fronesis, der sistnevnte får en grunnleggende betydning. En hovedkonklusjon er at religionsundervisning er viktig for å stimulere og utvikle fronesis som kunnskapsform hos elevene. Eleverfaringene drøftes også i relasjon til hvilken plass religion som fag gis i norsk utdanningspolitikk for fremtidens skole.Nøkkelord: religionsfagets betydning for ungdom, fronesis, virkelighetsdimensjoner, religionsdidaktikk, utdanningspolitikk, kjerneelementerAbstract: The article focuses on school experiences among young students (age 15-19 years), related to religion in education in Norway studied through individual interviews. Religious education stands out as one of the most important subjects in school. The students report that religious knowledge helps them to understand and respect their school mates’ religious stands and values, to construct their own identity, and to understand the global world. The students’ responses are analysed by the use of a didactical model developed by Leganger-Krogstad (2013) to illustrate dimensions of reality in focus in religious education. The principal conclusion is that religious education is important to stimulate and develop the students’ phronesis for life. Theoretical tools are Bernstein’s concepts of horizontal and vertical discourses, and Aristotle’s concepts of episteme, techne and phronesis. The experiences of the students are then discussed in relation to national educational policy in the future for religious education.Keywords: religious education, students’ perspectives, phronesis, dimensions of reality, RE approaches, educational policy on religious education.

National Educational Policy

The place of religion and how it should be employed in education for citizenship is currently an issue in Europe. The challenges of increasing diversity are the underlying factors. The conception of maximal citizenship (a critical model of citizenship) gives a significant framework for analysis and scholarly perspectives about several European contexts on this matter. However, there is hardly maximal citizenship in Finnish contexts in scholarship. Hence, this work searches for the elements of maximal citizenship in educational policy for young people by employing the policy relating to citizenship in Finnish religious education (RE). Focusing on grades 7–9 of basic education, its primary data is based on selected national policy documents. The data were analysed using critical discourse analysis. The main findings suggest that citizenship in Finnish RE is only somewhat compatible with the characteristics of maximal citizenship. This reveals some policy shortcomings that could negatively affect the potential of critical-mindedness of young people and equal opportunities in a democracy. Hence, some suggestions that could improve the situation are embedded in the paper. Nevertheless, a linguistic conception of citizenship in Finland vis-à-vis a recent development in national educational policy seems to push the conception of maximal citizenship in a relatively new direction. Furthermore, an explicit use of the “Convention on the Rights of the Child” in Finnish curriculum broadens our conception of maximal citizenship in general. Moreover, while scholars agree that maximal citizenship is essentially “critical”, this piece suggests that every “critical” approach to citizenship education is not necessarily “maximal”.

The author reveals the necessity of introducing into the educational and professional programs of preparation of masters of non-pedagogical specialties of the discipline "Didactics of higher education". Formation of pedagogical competences of the teacher of the higher school will allow the future specialists professional activity in the institutions of higher education. The article reveals the essence of didactic competence and peculiarities of its formation in higher education students in the current conditions of organizing the initial process. The competency approach should permeate all aspects of student training. Therefore, a special (didactic) competence should be included in the list of the graduates' learning outcomes. The didactic competence is the ability to apply knowledge of psychology and pedagogy (didactics) in the educational process of higher education institutions. In the orientation of the educational and professional program of the master of non-pedagogical specialties it is necessary to enter competencies that allow him to engage in teaching activities. General competences add to the ability to carry out pedagogical activities using innovative educational technologies, and special competences add to the ability to organize the educational process and carry out scientific research in order to solve topical problems of the theory, methodology, organization and practice of higher education students. One of the most important compulsory (normative) disciplines that enable the future specialist to teach special and professional disciplines in higher education institutions should be "Didactic of Higher Education". This is the main feature of forming didactic competence in higher education institutions. But the competent approach in higher education does not come down to a separate discipline, but because the phenomenon of integral and dynamic develops in the process of formal, non-formal and informal education and is in constant development and self-development. All stages of preparation of the master of non-pedagogical specialties for teaching activity should be directed on achievement of the main purpose of the educational process — formation of pedagogical competences of applicants of higher education.
