Contemplative pedagogy is a way for instructors to:
* empower students to integrate their own experience into the
theoretical material they are being taught in order to deepen their
understanding;
* help students to develop sophisticated problem-solving
skills;
* support students' sense of connection to and compassion
for others; and
* engender inquiries into students' most profound
questions.
Contemplative practices are used in just about every
discipline--from physics to economics to history--and are
found in every type of institution. Each year more and more
faculty, education reformers, and leaders of teaching and learning
centers seek out best practices in contemplative teaching, and now
can find them here, brought to you by two of the foremost leaders
and innovators on the subject.
This book presents background information and ideas for the
practical application of contemplative practices across the
academic curriculum from the physical sciences to the humanities
and arts. Examples of contemplative techniques included in the book
are mindfulness, meditation, yoga, deep listening, contemplative
reading and writing, and pilgrimage, including site visits and
field trips.
