This contains a fully resourced, differentiated introductory lesson on religious experiences. The main part of the lesson involves students produce a spider diagram showing William James’s criteria for a religious experience, working in groups to complete a grid task showing its different types (i.e. mystical, corporate, conversion, visions and voices) and then link it back to William James’s classification scheme for analysis (how these examples meet some or all of his criteria), finishing off with a fun and innovative plenary.
Learning Objectives:
To describe the meaning of a religious experience.
To explain the various categories of religious experience.
To analyse whether they meet William James criteria for a religious experience.
