Concepts and Methods wins Faculty of RCS Best Practice Award

During the Christmas drinks, the Best Practice Award Committee announced the winner of the Best Practice 2024 of the Faculty of Religion, Culture and Society. The award was won by the first-year course Theology: Concepts and Methods. Dr Gorazd Andrejč received the award on behalf of all the teachers teaching this course.

The course was chosen by the students because it inspires, interacts, and makes impact as well. The course aims to give students a broad introduction to the field of Theology. Through its unique collaboration with the Protestant Theological University (PThU), students acquire skills to look at concepts from different perspectives. As a result, students learn to discuss about different forms of religiosity in society, among other things by doing fieldwork. With these knowledge and skills, students develop critical thinking that is essential for students' citizenship education. Through the unique collaboration between the faculty and the PThU, each with its own distinctive profile, and the sincere commitment of teachers, students develop a conceptual framework to interpret, and explain, the practice of theology in relation to modern society.
