Prerequisites

Teaching Organisation This unit involves 150 hours of focused learning, or the equivalent of 10 hours per week for 15 weeks. The total includes formally structured learning activities such as lectures, tutorials, online learning, video-conferencing, or supervision. The remaining hours typically involve reading, research, and the preparation of tasks for assessment.

This unit draws on the fundamental shift in emphasis in theology from Vatican II that demanded that Christians read the Signs of the Times. This approach is intrinsic to the discipline and discourse of practical theology. The unit critically explores the methods, background, nature and theories of practical theology through analysis of contemporary events and contexts.
