SMI Undertakes National Research
Projects
At its 2011 Annual Conference,
School Ministries announced two major research projects it has
launched.
A pilot study is being conducted to
study the worldview development of students attending Released
-
Time Bible Education (RTBE)
programs. Students’ biblical worldview will be measured by
three difference perspectives: propositional beliefs,
faith-related behaviors, and heart-inclination.
-
An accreditation process and
standards for RTBE programs is being developed. Once
established RTBE programs can--on a volunteer basis-- go
through the accreditation process as a means of providing
quality assurance.
SMI has long understood the
importance of research both to enhance program performance and
also to gain credibility with school boards, church and
community leaders. Check with the SMI website and future SMI
newsletters to follow project research developments and to
access existing research.
