Abstract

This analysis focuses on the observation of the religious instruction class taught in Sarajevo aimed at gaining insight into an actual status of religious instruction class. In addition, it allows the collection of the information necessary for further streamlining of the class, more successful and better quality teaching as well as for achieving educational goals. This analysis has revealed that during the last ten years there was a significant improvement reflected in: improvement of organization and quality of instruction, definition of the status of the religious instruction class, the presence of adequate professional teaching staff, better students’ passing rate and cooperation between the state authorities and the Islamic Community authorities. Religious instruction curriculum is professionally present in the schools of the Sarajevo Canton. Significant steps have been made in improving teachers’ skills and improving and streamlining the class instruction itself. The teachers apply new methods of active and creative teaching, using different tools as a part of a new approach in presenting the curriculum. This in turn aids in development of the students’ independent knowledge gain as well as their creativity and research. Teachers are being continually educated and trained to improve the quality of the class and to develop themselves professionally. In addition, this also helps to raise an interest for the class among students as well as to make it valued and favored among them. All of this evidence indicates that religious instruction course has become an integral part of our educational system and that its presence today is completely justified.
