| Description: |
This book suggests ways to bring about a more relevant and meaningful education for individual students and a safer, happier, and more dynamic life in society. |
| Synopsis: |
To a fast growing number of secondary school students, education seems to be losing its relevance. The remedy could very well lie in Whole Education, which represents a movement, a direction, a trend, an orientation, an attitude, and a new education mind-set that deals with knowledge, skills, attitudes, and emotions in a fashion that is not unrelated to the whole life and circumstances and conditions of individual students. This book suggests ways to bring about a more relevant and meaningful education for individual students and a safer, happier, and more dynamic life in society. Contents: Foreword; Preface; Introduction: What is it all About?; What is Whole Education; Whole Education and the Learner; Whole Education and the Teacher; Whole Education and the Curriculum; Whole Education and the Language Arts; Whole Education and the Social Sciences; Whole Education and the Life Sciences; Whole Education and Mathematics; Whole Education and the Liberal Arts; Whole Education and School Administration; Whole Education and the Community; The Implementation of Whole Education; Conclusion; Notes and Selected References; Index; About the Author. |
