Educating for Wisdom and Compassion: Creating Conditions for Timeless Learning

Holistic education

See More

Abstract/Notes: Blending philosophy, research, and three decades of practice, John P. Miller's engaging discussion of timeless learning reminds us that wisdom as an outcome of education is more than skills mastery and high-stakes assessments. Among the benefits to students discussed here are wholeness; a sense of purpose; improved attention, alertness, perception, and memory; and reduced stress and anxiety achieved through meditation, contemplation, and reflection.

Abstract/Notes: Från att ha varit en tämligen marginell företeelse vid 1900-talets början, har förskolan blivit en angelägenhet för en stor del av den svenska befolkningen. Idag deltar mer än 90 procent av alla barn mellan två och sex år i offentligt finansierad förskole- och barnomsorgsverksamhet. Avsikten med föreliggande antologi är att belysa olika aspekter av denna avgörande utveckling. Bland författarna märks både de som bidragit till att definiera forskningsfältet, såväl nationellt som internationellt, och de vars bidrag illustrerar mer sentida utvecklingstendenser inom området. I fokus för antologin står tre teman som varit centrala både i förskolans historia och dess historieskrivning: stat, yrkeskår och individ. Bland de ämnen som behandlas återfi nns den svenska barnträdgårdsrörelsens historia, Montessoripedagogiken reception under mellankrigstiden, utvecklingen av pedagogiska leksaker och den statliga televisionens betydelse för förskolesektorns expansion. Tack vare den inledande introduktionen till förskolans historieskrivning, och den avslutande bibliografi n med närmare 200 poster, utgör volymen också en god introduktion till ett mycket vitalt forskningsfält. [From being a rather marginal phenomenon at the beginning of the 20th century, preschool has become a matter for a large part of the Swedish population. Today, more than 90 percent of all children between the ages of two and six participate in publicly funded preschool and childcare activities. The purpose of the present anthology is to shed light on various aspects of this crucial development. Among the authors are both those who have contributed to defining the field of research, both nationally and internationally, and those whose contributions illustrate more recent development trends in the field. The focus of the anthology is three themes that have been central to both the preschool's history and its history writing: state, profession and individual. Among the topics covered are the history of the Swedish kindergarten movement, the Montessori pedagogy reception during the interwar period, the development of educational toys and the importance of state television for the expansion of the preschool sector. Thanks to the introductory introduction to preschool history writing, and the concluding bibliography with almost 200 entries, the volume is also a good introduction to a very vital field of research.]
