I propose five possible ways to improve the didactics of prayer: – one should learn the theological dimension of prayer, as the dialogue between God and man deals with these two great mysteries that one should always penetrate with ones mind. The Catechism of the Catholic Church and the current syllabus of religious instruction explain the concept of prayer, but students understand it also individually, as we can see it from the survey of 1300 primary school pupils and 441 secondary school students, – psychological conditions of prayer deal with the knowledge of the level of the development of religiousness (nine periods – from the pre-religious to the eschatological one), and also the family situation of students, – planning the place of prayer in a catechetic unit concerns religious instruction entirely devoted to prayer, goals and contents of instruction, a well-planned place during a concrete religious unit and in homework, – prayer in homework is supposed to result from the contents and goals of religious instruction, it opens enormous opportunities for creative ideas, – finally, the catechist is supposed to develop his/her own level of prayer and ensure its experience together with students, playing the roles of a teacher, educator, witness, animator, or even therapist.plAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/modlitwadydaktykakatechezakatechizowaniteologiateologia pastoralnateologia modlitwypsychologia modlitwypsychologiazadania domoweprayerdidacticscatechesisreligious instructionnauczanie religiiteaching religionstudentsuczniowietheologypastoral theologytheology of prayerpsychology of prayerpsychologyhomeworkcatechized peopleArticle
