Document Details : Title: Child and Youth Spirituality Subtitle: Current Research and Practice Issues, and Some Strategic Pointers Author(s): CHATER, Mark Journal: Studies in Spirituality Volume: 15 Date: 2005 Pages: 251-265 DOI: 10.2143/SIS.15.0.2003478 Abstract : This article addresses problems in the theory and practice of spiritual education in schools. A number of definitions and approaches from several continents are discussed, and particular attention is paid to the North American, European and UK contexts. The article advocates a pluralist model of children’s and young people’s spirituality, but warns that more work is needed in defining it, and delineating it from aspects of religion and education. |
