ABSTRACT This study purposed to the effectiveness of spirituality-based problem solving on Moral Responsibility)MR), and Spiritual Education (SE) of students. This study is practical in terms of purpose and semi-experimental in terms of the method with control and experimental groups. The survey sample consisted of two (test and control) groups of 25 people selected by the multi-stage cluster sampling method. The problem-solving education protocol was executed for the test group based on the model of Boalhari and Mohseni Kabir in seven 60-minute sessions. Data gathering tools included a) Sajedi Questionnaire and b) Carol spiritual education questionnaire. Results of the covariance analysis showed that problem solving based on spirituality have a positive and meaningful impact on the spiritual education (recognition, 0.63 behaviour, 0.53 and emotional 0.56) components of students, the findings also indicate that spirituality-based problem solving have a positive and meaningful impact on the students’ moral responsibility (civil, 0.45 and criminal, 0.36).

ABSTRACT Parent and practitioners observations were examined to provide insights into the impact of covid-19 restrictions on children’s spiritual well-being, specifically related to reduced physical meeting of church communities in two case study contexts: Poland and the UK. Exploration of the four domains of spiritual wellbeing was carried out (Fisher 1998), with specific focus on how the abrupt changes in the communal domain may have impacted on other aspects of the child’s spiritual well-being. Significant variations in the response by churches during the pandemic were overlaid by disparate perceptions of the spiritual needs of children in these contexts. The extent to which these responses dovetailed with parental responsibilities and expectations of the church was considered alongside awareness of the changed nature of church’s activity with children during the pandemic.

ABSTRACT This study describes the developing and testing of a measure of spiritual health accessible to 8- to 11-year-old students that is consistent with the four-domain model as operationalised by Fisher’s family of measures, but avoids explicit religious or theistic content. Data generated by 4,803 students in Wales confirm the rotated four-factor structure of the new 12-item measure and also the coherence of employing the total scale score as a unidimensional measure of global spiritual health (α = .90). After taking personal factors and psychological factors into account, regression analysis demonstrated that religious affect contributed additional power to predicting higher spiritual health scores on this new measure that was not itself contaminated by explicit religious or theistic content. This instrument is commended as providing a sound foundation for assessing the spiritual health of primary school students within a variety of religious and non-religious schools.

ABSTRACT Belief is an essential component forming the Buddhist education process, and it could encourage learners to practise harder. Examining it in all aspects covering its association with demographic factors but not just with the practice likely helps design a thorough curriculum. As a result, this paper aims for exploring which ones among the demographic characteristics such as age, education, gender and family linked to adolescents’ belief in Buddhism and how they connected with it. By adopting an exploratory sequential mixed methods approach for surveying 140 teenagers aged 12–18 attending every Sunday retreats at three Zen monasteries, the study demonstrated that their Buddhist belief positively correlated with age and education but negatively associated with the family.

learn the language and the way the teachers teach the language. Therefore, attention should be given to the quality of the language learning environment that is encouraging and can enhance learning and achievement. Ajmain et al. (Chapter 11) illustrate how learning and memorising might be conducted through specific Islamic singing (nasheed) that may holistically develop the individuals. This art of sound has been applied everyday by Muslims as, for example, they recite the Quran. Huda et al. (Chapter 12) accentuate the importance of moral responsibility on digital learning from the IE perspective. This literature study reveals that there is a need for Islamic teaching and learning guidelines that develop Muslim learners’ cognitive, psychomotoric, and the professional ability to deal with societal problems. Huda et al. (Chapter 13) critically discuss that learning ethics culture in IE is an important dimension of preparing a holistic approach for personal involvement in the society. As the final chapter, Huda et al. conclude that for personal character education, many Islamic schools (pesantren) in Indonesia refer to a book of Al-Zarnuji to develop individual spiritual and intellectual skills. We find the book a documentation of inter-contextual work that addresses the experiences, voices and insights of Muslim educators. This volume promotes a better understanding of how Islam is learnt and taught in different socio-political landscapes especially where Islam becomes the religion of the majority. While it may not mainly focus on children or young people’s spirituality, some chapters of the book provide useful messages for the teaching of religion or spirituality to young people. For instance, in Chapter 11, singing (i.e., nasheed) is viewed as a useful strategy to teach religion (i.e., Islam) to young people who mostly like music, although it may be against some views of Muslims and Muslim scholars who consider music as haram (forbidden). However, the volume would have been better if local terminologies were presented with their equal meanings in English, since this volume is intended for international readers (see, for example, Chapter 6 which includes Keaswajaan within its title). In sum, this volume documents descriptions, discussions, and debates in various contexts of the area around IE useful for for better understanding the world of Islamic education.

ABSTRACT Every family who enters a hospital is on a personal journey. The awareness of that particular journey allows us to make more intentional and purposeful choices about how health and medical professionals want to be spiritually involved with each child and family. Spiritual care for sick children raises an important concern for health and medical professionals. The purpose of this article is to introduce the role of children’s spirituality in administering intentional spiritual care for the hearts, minds, and spirits of sick children and their families in health care settings. Characteristics and principles of intentional spiritual care are discussed along with a variety of activities and interventions healthcare professionals can use effectively when taking care of the spiritual needs of young patients in hospitals. By conducting an ethnographic research study and collecting data as a participant-observer, the author documented activities with hospitalised children and how medical personnel nurtured and supported their spiritual domain.

ABSTRACT This mixed methods research project with 16 participants focused on the spiritual and emotional needs of 8–16 year olds who had a sibling with a chronic rare disease was undertaken by the Centre for Paediatric Spiritual Care at Birmingham Children’s Hospital. Three research tools were included: Kidscreen 52 Health-related quality of life questionnaire with proxy version, 1–1 semi-structured interviews and focus groups. The data was viewed through the lens of Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs and Nye’s interpretation of them. Key findings showed that having a sick child impacted the well child in all the areas of Maslow’s hierarchy but particularly esteem and self-actualisation needs. Early interventions are recommended to support the well sibling to seek to ameliorate the impact on spiritual and emotional needs of having a chronically sick sibling. Advocacy and awareness raising is beneficial.
