Islam In-Depth Study Rubric/Assignments
Introduction to
In-Depth studies (taken from IB): In-depth studies should be approached
through the themes using the key questions to focus on analysis rather than
description. This is achieved by an understanding and application of the key
concepts and the specific content for each religion. Each theme should be
taught using a range of resources. The religions studied should be placed in
their historical, social, political and cultural contexts, though the emphasis
should be on contemporary practice. The diversity of expression and experience
within religions should be emphasized in connection with such issues as
sectarian differences, migration, conversion and adaptation. The content given
in each in-depth study is detailed in order to provide thorough information to
enable students to develop in-depth knowledge and understanding of the religion
chosen.
