The purpose of the present study is to investigate students’ understanding of Religious instruction and more specifically the understanding of the Parable of the Prodigal Son, using a didactic approach with the aid of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). The sample was comprised of two identical classes of 20 pupils each, aged 6 to 7, attending the first grade of primary school in Heraklion, Crete. Quantitative planning and more specifically experimental research were used to conduct this research. The sample was divided into two groups, an experimental one and a control one. The experimental group was taught through an intervention using ICTs as an auxiliary of teaching. The control group was taught according to the traditional instruction. The results showed significant improvement in the understanding of the Parable of the Prodigal Son in the experimental group in comparison to the control group.

本研究的目的是在信息和通信技术（ICT）的帮助下，采用教学法调查学生对宗教教育的理解，尤其是对“败家子”寓言的理解。样本由两个相同的班级组成，每班20名学生，年龄在6至7岁，就读于克里特岛伊拉克利翁小学一年级。定量计划和更具体的实验研究被用来进行这项研究。将样品分为两组，实验组和对照组。通过使用信息通信技术作为教学辅助手段进行干预，对实验组进行了教学。对照组是按照传统教学方法教的。
