Application of Theme-Centered Interaction to religious education

The theory of theme-centered interaction (TZİ) was developed by Ruth Cohn in the 1950s and 1960s. In recent decades, TZİ has become widespread in Central Europe and is today one of the most widely used group methods in the field of pedagogy and humanistic psychology. The topic-centered action is a teaching and learning method for groups with the aim of "Living Learning", in which it is assumed that experience and conceptuality form a unity. Emotion and intellect are both parts of the human being and must be lived in a common learning process, otherwise it is not crowned with success. The basis of the application of TCI is the triangle, consisting of I, We and the topic of the group. These are surrounded by the so-called globe. The result is a triangle in the sphere. This triangle is supported by the postulates, the axioms and the so-called auxiliary rules.
