Parker J. Palmer: The Courage to Teach 30th Anniversary Edition, Gebunden

Klappentext

Parker J. Palmer's classic on engaged teaching and learning, now updated with new material

For 30 years, The Courage to Teach has been helping educators reignite their passion, deepen their practice, and meet the challenges that come with their vital work. Enriched by a new Letter to the Reader on education and democracy in the age of AI, this book makes the compelling case that good teaching cannot be reduced to technique but is rooted in the identity and integrity of the teacher.

With candor and compassion, bestselling author Parker J. Palmer explores the one trait that good teachers share: an authentic, integrated presence that helps weave learning communities with lasting results. When teachers join intellect, emotion and spirit in their work, they connect students and subjects in ways that make transformative learning possible. Here is time-tested wisdom on revitalizing classrooms for students and teachers alike.

The Courage to Teach has helped several generations of educators forge the trustworthy relationships on which learning depends:

• Reclaim vision and purpose against the threat of burn-out
• Explore practical ways to center humanity and community in the age of AI
• Practice the relational traits that good teachers have in common
• Draw students into "live encounters" that bring the subject to life

For personal reflection, faculty development, or undergraduate and graduate education, The Courage to Teach is rich with timeless guidance in the ancient arts of teaching and learning.
