"Nærmiljøet vårt er mye rikere på religioner enn jeg trodde"

Sammendrag

This article describes how students in the upper secondary school worked with and experienced fieldwork as an assignment in RE. The students were sent out to explore a religious group or a religion-like phenomenon. They presented their experiences in class and wrote a reflection log. My experience is that fieldwork at the start of the school year is a good way to enhance the students' understanding of the purpose of the subject, as well as their curiosity towards religion and religious diversity.
