Using structural equation modeling to explain professional beliefs about teaching and learning among N = 1,441 German schoolteachers, our study yielded virtually no explanatory value for religiosity, but certainly one for non-transcendet spiritual beliefs as predictors. Our research results differ from findings in some studies from the U.S. that showed substantial correlations between teachers’ religious and professional beliefs. Some possible reasons are reflected in the discussion section. Highlights Teachers’ religiosity and spirituality are weakly related to professional beliefs. “Connectedness with oneself” explains the sense of professional self-efficacy. “Connectedness with others” explains an idealistic self-concept. “Connectedness with others” explains student-centered attitudes. Control variables/factors explain teachers’ professional beliefs to some extent.","PeriodicalId":43359,"journal":{"name":"Religion & Education","volume":"8 12","pages":"159 - 190"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72515509","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

University students are often radicalized by religious fundamentalists and are usually used in the destruction of lives and property. This makes the inclusion of RNV as a course in university curriculum a necessary endeavor for sustaining peace and development in Nigeria, looking at its impact on secondary education. The curriculum of Nigeria’s secondary schools includes the subject “Religion and National Values” which has resulted in widespread religious tolerance, peace, and development. Scholars are yet to look at how these results were achieved and the need for RNV to be included in university curriculum. In this study, the literature was extended to look at how the curriculum can promote national unity, peace, and development at the secondary school level, as well as the need for RNV in the university curriculum. This study utilized documentary analysis, with data gotten from secondary sources. In this study, it was discovered that the Nigerian university curriculum is designed to cater to university students’ economic and political needs at the neglect of religion, which has taken more lives and property in Nigeria. Also, the contents of Nigeria’s educational curriculum increase the dichotomy between Christians and Muslims because of the neglect of a course that touches on religion and national values (RNV). In conclusion, the inclusion of RNV as a course in university curriculum increases unity among students and also reduces the chances of youth being radicalized by terrorist groups. Recommendations are discussed.","PeriodicalId":43359,"journal":{"name":"Religion & Education","volume":"48 1","pages":"209 - 227"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82036189","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
