Redefining the Fundamental Questions in Religious Education

Abstract

Every researcher must answer some fundamental questions. What is the nature of the reality that I wish to study? (ontology) How will I know it? (epistemology) What must I do to know it? (methodology)? A new question has emerged as critical for qualitative researchers as well: Who am I? (social location). How does my social location and world view impact the research? For those of us in religious education, I would add yet one more, Where is God in this? (theology) Bu yazı, “Crain, Margaret Ann (2006). “Redefining the Fundamental Questions”, Religious Education, 101:4, 438-442.” künyeli makalenin çevirisidir.
