The theologically motivated educational movement originating from the Reformation not only aimed to impart the necessary skills for exploring the Holy Scriptures, but also to educate learned and responsible human resources for the state and society. Therefore, teaching and further education were reformed by school regulations and educational programs. Many places of learning – schools, academies, universities – were either founded or fundamentally reformed. This process had a profound and sustainable impact on educational theory, as well as on both canonization of knowledge and communicating values.

This section looks to historical reconstruction and an analysis of how the Reformation and Reformers formed lasting effects on education in its social contexts. Relevant issues include pedagogical processes, subjects und places of learning, impacts on the cultivation of individuals as well as life in the parish and borough. Other issues are the cultivation of piety through the Reformation and the interactions between theological impulses und pedagogical practises.
