ABSTRACT
Open Educational Resources (OER) und Open Educational Practices (OEP) haben sich als zentrale Elemente der strategischen Entwicklung digitaler Bildungspraktiken etabliert, bleiben jedoch in der religionspädagogischen Forschung bislang weitgehend unbeachtet. Der vorliegende systematische Literaturbericht untersucht die empirische Evidenz zu OER/OEP hinsichtlich Bildungsgerechtigkeit, Inklusion und Qualität sowie deren Wechselwirkung, insbesondere im Hochschulkontext. Methodisch folgt die Analyse den PRISMA-Leitlinien und kombiniert induktive mit deduktiven Auswertungsansätzen. Die Ergebnisse zeigen ambivalente Befunde: Sie weisen auf strategische, infrastrukturelle und kulturelle Herausforderungen hin, unterstreichen aber das perspektivische Potenzial von OER/OEP für eine partizipationsorientierte, digitale und pädagogisch wie theologisch verantwortete religionspädagogische Bildungslandschaft.ABSTRACT
Open Educational Resources (OER) and Open Educational Practices (OEP) have become central elements in the strategic development of digital educational practices but remain largely overlooked in religious education research. This systematic literature review examines empirical evidence on OER/OEP concerning educational equity, inclusion, and quality, as well as their interrelation, particularly in the context of higher education. Methodologically, the analysis follows the PRISMA guidelines and combines inductive and deductive evaluation approaches. The findings present ambivalent results: they highlight strategic, infrastructural, and cultural challenges but also underscore the prospective potential of OER/OEP for a participatory, digital, and pedagogically as well as theologically reflected religious education landscape.| Language | German |
