摘要

本研究由「全人教育」的概念出發，連結超個人心理學「全人」的概念，而後分析宗教信仰的功能、大學校院現行的宗教課程，進而論述宗教課程納入通識課程的需要性。 所得結論：一、宗教信仰體現在生活中的功能包含對個體發展的影響與個體和環境互動的影響，符合「全人」的概念。二、宗教信仰對於個人影響是「全面性」的，所以「全人教育」不宜忽視宗教信仰給個體所帶來的影響。三、大學校院將宗教課程納入通識課程，是發展「全人教育」具體可行的策略。四、設立宗教科目的學校並非僅止於宗教色彩鮮明的學校，而是許多學校使用的方法。 所提建議：一、將宗教學群納入通識課程的人文哲學領域。二、以宗教學群為貫穿與聯繫通識教育各領域的核心課程，發揮宗教信仰「全人」的影響力。三、宗教科目的教學以「全人發展」為目標，不為「教派的推廣」而設置。
