Teacher Development Survey
The survey of religious educators conducted by the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) of Congregations in the Fall of 2004 revealed that congregations use a variety of innovative methods to support and sustain teachers in their ministry to children, youth, and adults. Many religious educators feel torn between providing the pragmatic resources for teaching (curriculum, supplies, information about programs) and nurturing the spiritual journeys of teachers. The survey revealed interest in deepening the experience of teaching and expanding the connections to community and faith that are made through religious education programs. In addition, there is commitment to efficiently providing resources to support and sustain teachers in the everyday moments of teaching.Last updated on Friday, April 18, 2008.
