Abstract

The higher education teaching is faced with different challenges in the new millennium: On the one hand, university teaching is confronted with competence orientation, particularly as a consequence of the Bologna-Reform, on the other hand, it is confronted with the increasing digitization of teaching. Both aspects extend through all the areas of the educational system in the German-speaking world. Regarding the university teaching in the field of religious pedagogy, there is additionally the rising religious diversity in Western Europe as well as the embedment of interreligious teaching and learning processes especially in the teacher training. The present article takes up these aspects and, introducing two practical examples of Freiburg and Vienna, he aims to reflect the opportunities and challenges of a digital and competence-based university teaching in the context of Christian and Islamic religious pedagogy. Both examples of implementation refer to the main aspect, the interreligious teaching and learning in the context of university didactics.
