Formation of the Heart: Memory, liturgy and the identity of Catholic student teachers

Fr. Stephen Reilly & Mary Lappin

Twenty years on from the merger of Scotland’s Catholic teacher training college with the University of Glasgow, this paper examines the formation of Catholic teachers in Scotland in light of the Holy See’s vision. It concludes that the academic formation and opportunities for dialogue allow such a vision to be fulfilled to a large degree. What remains is to present students with a compelling vision of Catholic educational philosophy and an experiential “formation of the heart”.

Et donc, quoi faire au niveau de l’éducation?

Narratives of Openness: International Students’ Experiences in a British Ecumenical University and its City

Bignold, Wendy | Liverpool Hope, England

Liverpool Hope University prides itself on being a strong community which values students and staff from different places, locally, nationally and internationally. This paper tells the stories of international students and alumni, a significant part of the community, and explores their lived experiences. It does this through narrative accounts written by the students and in doing so gives them a voice which enables us to experience the openness they feel towards them, or a closed attitude, from those they meet in the University and its city.
