Abstract

This paper is based on two reconstructive case analyses, which shows pupils‘ attidtudes
towards the “Dialogical Denominationally Religious Education” (dk:RU). This pilot
project was introduced in different types of Viennese schools in autumn 2015. Group
interviews were utilized to allow pupils to express their perspectives. The results show
that learning is the key word in both groups, but accentuated differently. While in the
first group learning about others is favorized, the other group underlines the learning
about the own denomination. Final considerations to ‘dialogic learning’ in the context
of the denominational religious education are summed up.
