Synopsis:
A Buddhist perspective on classroom teaching, exploring the ethical quandaries, lived experiences, and intimacy of teaching. Addressing such topics as attention, community, rage, wonder, consumerism, and simple kindness, Brown demonstrates how Buddhist tradition can inform and enrich classroom life.
Readers do not have to be Buddhists to appreciate the gifts of this tradition and Brown's perspectives on education. Stories from Buddhist texts offer illustrative teaching moments, and an archive of practical tools and suggestions make this book a valuable reference. While Brown teaches at the college level, teachers of students at all levels and those who are interested in the educational experience will gain insight from this book.
"With a personal style that makes use of anecdotes and descriptions of teaching situations, Sid Brown presents Buddhist principles as they apply to the classroom in a very vibrant and relevant way." Ruben L.Habito, author. |
