Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to find out Christian
education programme: Its effectiveness in producing Christian
teachers among selected Evangelical theological colleges in
Kenya. Three sample schools were selected randomly for this study.
A response was obtained from seven teachers and fifty seven
students who are teachers and students of Christian
education respectively.
One instrument, a questionnaire, was formulated. This
instrument was divided into two types: an open-form
questionnaire and the other a close-form questionnaire.
The information gathered was documented and summarized by
the use of frequency mean and percentage.
The findings of the study showed the following effectiveness
of the programme of Christian education in producing Christian
teachers:
1. The department of Christian education is just beginning to be realized in the theological colleges as a minor, run by teachers who have minimum qualifications in this
area.
2. The emphasis in this department is shown by clear objectives, activities, and ways of assessing work done by students.
