LTDabartinėje Lietuvos bendrojo lavinimo vidurinėje mokykloje greta etikos mokiniai turi galimybę rinktis ir kitą dorinio ugdymo discipliną – tikybą. Religinio ugdymo praktikos tyrimai mokykloje yra tik fragmentiški, tad labai aktualu juos papildyti naujais. Visuomenėje vis didėjant dvasiniam nuosmukiui itin svarbu išanalizuoti realią tikybos mokymo padėtį mūsų mokyklose. Straipsnyje pateikiami moksleivių nuomonių ir nuostatų tyrimo duomenys leidžia plačiau aptarti tikybos pasirinkimo motyvų, įtakojančių veiksnių bei jų kaitos ypatumus. Rezultatai įgalina formuoti religinio ugdymo optimizavimo bendrojo lavinimo mokykloje kryptis ir teikti rekomendacijas.

ENBeing concerned in the maturity of spiritual powers of teenagers or young people, we must discuss more actively the objectives, tasks, directions and possibilities of moral education. The objective of the article is to discuss the peculiarities of motivation and fluctuation of the motivation for choosing the lessons of religion at comprehensive secondary school (class 6-12). We tried to find out by using the questionnaire investigation the principal motives for the schoolchildren to choose the lessons of religion and the main factors as forming or influencing such motives. The analysis of the opinions and attitude of schoolchildren revealed though fragmental, but real situation at school, which is far from being exuberant. The main motive for choosing the lessons of religion in the group of class 6-8 schoolchildren is natural curiosity, the wish to cognate the God and religion. In the gymnasium young people concentrate on the fundamental subjects as required for school-leaving examinations and academic study.The urgent problem is the weakness of motives for choosing religion both in class 6-8 and classes of the gymnasium. The most negative thing is the tendency of the schoolchildren of different classes to name religion as not a significant discipline of training. The most stable factor should be considered the fluctuation of the independent self-determination. As schoolchildren pass from class to class, only their motives of self-determination fluctuate. The provided results of the investigation enable to segregate from the entire problems two obligatory directions of corrective activities: 1) refreshing, activating the religion education in the family; 2) optimization of training religion teachers.
