Educating from the Heart

Theoretical and Practical Approaches to Transforming Education
Herausgeber: Johnson, Aostre N.; Neagley, Marilyn Webb

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book offers both theoretical overviews and practical approaches for educators, academics, education students and parents who are interested in transforming schools. It encourages reinvigorating approaches to learning and teaching that can easily be integrated into both public and private K-12 school classrooms, with many ideas also applicable to higher education. It supports an educational system based on the beliefs that heart and spirit are intertwined with mind and intellect, and that inner peace, wisdom, compassion, and conscience can be developed together with academic content and skills.
