Findings on Learning and Learning Effect in Cooperative Religious Education

Abstract

This article gives an overview of the learning effects of cooperative religious education (kokoRU). For this purpose, in a first step, theoretically named objectives in religious education literature are collected and catego­rized. After a brief description of the methods by which this learning has been studied so far, these are then com­pared with the empirically investigated goals in existing kokoRU studies from the perspective of parents, teachers and students. As a result, it is almost universally noted that confessional knowledge is increasing. How and wheth­er, confessional consciousness, ability to take a stand on the other hand, cannot be clearly elicited.
