This study involved pre-service elementary
educators'' attitudes towards curriculum on Islamic
religious art. The research question, Will the
attitudes of teachers change towards Islam/Muslims
after being exposed to the key components of Islamic
religious art: Mosque architecture,
nonrepresentational designs, and calligraphy, when
taught in relation to Islamic culture? Most of the
students knew very little about Islamic culture and
some were distrustful of anything Muslims produced.

people. During the course of this study the
reactions of participants went from distrustful to
appreciative of Islamic art and culture.
