“…He argued that a second-order explanatory framework, a theoretical framework that indicates what is meant by "religion" in the context of RE, is needed to organize the RE curriculum (Teece 2010). Such a framework enables teachers and syllabi compilers to select content from religions for the RE curriculum that students can learn about and from.…”

“…In his article, Teece (2010) explored the question regarding the object of study that students learn about and from in RE.

“…Second, each article addresses the distinction between learning about and from religion from a different angle: Hella and Wright (2009) take a pedagogical-didactical approach, taking the students as a focal point. Teece (2010) focuses on the content of RE. This gives us the opportunity to demonstrate the need for and use of "worldview" from both angles.…”

This article aims to argue that worldview is a useful concept in religious education because of its encompassing character. In the first part of the article three essential characteristics of "worldview" are distinguished: "worldview" includes religious and secular views; a distinction between organized and personal worldviews should be made; and existential questions are a necessary part of "worldview." The second part of the article demonstrates how two articles about Grimmitt's distinction between learning about and from religion benefit from using "worldview" and how the authors can address their points more clearly by using the concept and its three essential characteristics.
