Perception on the Role of Religious Educators: Basis for Understanding the Pedagogical Approach in Catholic Religious Education

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: The role of religious educators is important in promoting an effective and systematic way of teaching the faith. How religious educators describe their role is a good indicator of how they teach Catholic Religious Education (CRE) to the students. This qualitative study aimed to provide a systematic pedagogy of religious education relating to the essential components of faith, David Kolb’s experiential learning theory (ELT), and the National Catechetical Directory for the Philippines’ pedagogy of faith for Filipinos today. Based on the perceived role of religious educators, the study presented the process of teaching CRE systematically while keeping the themed roles of religious educators as evangelizers, witnesses to faith, and formators.
