註釋THE SHAPE OF RELIGIOUS INSTRUCTION--the book which launched a sweeping revolution in religious education. Must reading for every Catholic and Protestant religious educator. James Michael Lee's monumental trilogy on religious instruction accomplishes what never before has been attempted in Catholic or Protestant circles, namely the development of a broad, comprehensive, and systematic theory of religious instruction. By establishing a systematic theory, Lee's trilogy makes it possible for the first time to develop truly effective and integrative religion teaching practices and religion curricula. The trilogy embraces the social-science approach to religious education. The social-science approach is not a pedagogical technique or a passing fad; it is an organic scaffolding or superstructure which forms the basic elements for all tried-and-true education. Volume I of the trilogy, The Shape of Religious Instruction presents the rationale for the existence of religious instruction as a field in its own right, a field drawing upon but not a branch of other disciplines or areas such as theology, psychology, or sociology. The concepts and suggestions set forth in the trilogy apply with the same basic force to persons of all ages--children, adolescents, and adults. These concepts and suggestions also apply to religious instruction no matter where it is done--in a classroom, in a home, in a family situation, in a camp, in a liturgy, or on the athletic field. Ecumenical in tone, reference, and intent, Lee's trilogy is exerting significant impact on Catholic and Protestant religious educators alike.
