Background
- Scope and content:
-
These slides are arranged in sets of twelve, and each set is intended to be complete within itself, and to provide sufficient teaching material for one session. Twelve slides may seem very few to show in one session, but a mistake frequently made is to show too many slides at one time. Each picture is intended to be a peg on which teaching and discussion can be hung, and it is often useful to run through a set of slides a second time, getting a student to make the comments on the picture, or to question his fellow pupils.
The notes which follow will need to be supplemented by the teacher, but it is hoped that enough information is given to indicate why the sets have been made up as they are.
The sets could be used in a number of ways. They could be used as illustrative material for the initial teaching of a subject; or they could be used for revision purposes. Other combinations of pictures could be made, or one set amplified from another or with the teacher's own slides.
These slide sets do not pretend to cover the history of Christianity in East Africa exhaustively, and there are many aspects which are ommitted altogether. The Department of Religious Studies is very grateful to all those who have helped to collect the material used here, and asks those who use it to help collect further useful illustrations.
