This book guides students to complete Unit One in the revised Victorian Certificate of Education Study "Religion and Society". It closely follows the outcomes and Areas of Study of the revised unit, developing its teaching and learning sequence around the three areas of study of "the religious world", "Religious traditions in Australia" and "Religious identity and life experience".
The book systematically introduces students to the content proposed in the study design, and provides them with a wide range of activities through which they may engage critically with this content. As the title suggests, it is intended to introduce students to the diverse world of religions.
They will encounter many religions as they use the book, from Australian indigenous religions, to the religions of the ancient world and the religions that have made Australia a multi-religious nation since the middle of the twentieth century.
The authors hope that as the students use the book they may not only be enabled to complete successfully the unit "Religion in Society" Unit One, but that they may also grow in their understanding and appreciation of the diversity of religions in their schools, neighbourhoods and the global world.
Throughout the book there are many suggestions given for assessment tasks through which students may demonstrate their mastery of the unit outcomes.
