Book Archetype  Culture  and the Individual in Education

Download or read book Archetype Culture and the Individual in Education written by Clifford Mayes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-03-16 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Archetype, Culture, and the Individual in Education: The Three Pedagogical Narratives, Clifford Mayes presents a unique approach to understanding how Jungian principles can inform pedagogical theory and practice. In a time when what the educational historian Lawrence Cremin called the 'military-industrial-educational complex' and its standardized education are running roughshod over the psyche and spirit of students, Mayes deploys depth psychology, especially the work of Jung, to advance an archetypal approach to teaching and learning. Mayes demonstrates how catastrophic it is to students when the classroom is governed by forces that objectify the individual in a paralysing stranglehold. He argues that one’s life-narrative is significantly impacted by one’s narrative as a learner; thus, schooling that commodifies learning and turns the student into an object has neuroticizing effects that will spread throughout that student’s entire life. In Part I, Mayes explores the interaction between archetypes and various types of time—ultimately focusing on the individual but always mediated by ‘the cultural unconscious’. In Parts II and III, he brings together education with (post-)Jungian and (post-)Freudian psychology, examining transference/countertransference in the classroom; the Jungian idea of ‘the shadow’ applied to educational processes; Jung’s unique vision of ‘the symbol’ and its importance for educational theory; and Jung’s ‘transcendent function’ as a prime educational modality. Mayes concludes by looking to the future of archetypal pedagogy. This groundbreaking work in the emerging field of Jungian pedagogy is invaluable reading in Jungian Studies, depth psychological theory, educational theory, and for teachers and psychotherapists.

Book New Visions and New Voices

Download or read book New Visions and New Voices written by Clifford Mayes and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2023-05-25 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the contributors expand on their use of Mayes archetypal pedagogy in volume 1 to apply its principles to a wide variety of venues, purposes, and projects. Each essay explores from its own disciplinary angle the difference between what Mayes has called “educational processes” (which are those practices that take place in the dedicated space of the classroom, through the medium of the curriculum, and under the stewardship of the teacher) and “educative acts” (which are those deep transactions between individuals in joint pursuit of existential truth, wherein one is alternately the teacher and student in conversation, and sometimes even communion, with one’s dialogical partner”).

Download or read book Teacher written by Robert Mitchell and published by Strategic Book Publishing Rights Agency. This book was released on 2024-07-24 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vocational archetype stands behind the character of the teacher’s personality, focusing lessons on both the intellectual and personality development of students. Teachers discover the vocational archetype in themselves through trial and error. The teacher-student relationship in the autonomy of the classroom inspires the mind and nurtures the character of the soul. However, consciousness of mind and soul are different. Soul consciousness has an imagistic nature that can see the spiritual archetype that stands behind the individual personality. The child archetype is depicted in many cultures as the “divine child.” The archetype of the adolescent is the hero. The vocational archetype of the teacher is expressed in personality and character, nurturing the archetypal characteristics in the personalities of the students. However, many teachers have lost touch with the archetypal characteristics of their vocation and must seek the vocational archetype on their own, through trial and error. This book is a portrait of one teacher’s process of seeking the vocational archetype. Experiences with students are a major part of the process. The other part is to find and defend a classroom philosophy that evokes the teacher archetype in front of the students, their parents, and the administration. The author will inspire, encourage, and empower teachers who are seeking the vocational archetype in themselves, and give voice to the vocational archetype in our school communities and in our culture.

Book Developing the Whole Student

Download or read book Developing the Whole Student written by Clifford Mayes and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-12-31 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book proposes a new way of categorizing curricula in the holistic educational traditional. This is an idea that goes back in the Western tradition at least as far as Plato, and Lao Tzu in the Eastern tradition. It is certainly present in Spinoza and Schopenhauer. It is called a “holarchy”. The idea of a holarchy gives rise to Integrative Curriculum Theory, which, with major modifications, draws on Ken Wilber’s in his evolutionary model of the development of consciousness at personal, cultural and ontological realms. Integrative Curriculum Theory will: 1) Prove a useful addition to the holistic repertoire of systematic and, above all, humane terminologies and “technologies” for making and evaluating specific curricula as well as for theorizing the curriculum at a time when “scientistic,” “technist” and profit-driven views of education have commandeered the podium, policy, and praxis and 2) address some areas of concern that with certain holistic models of education, and 3) address some problems in Wilber’s integral model of psychological, cultural, and spiritual evolution.

Book Becoming a Global Citizen

Download or read book Becoming a Global Citizen written by Dinah D'Antoni and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-11-28 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modern world becomes significantly, even exponentially, more interconnected with each passing year, month, and even day. The global flow of goods, services, news, ideas, and cultural practices and perspectives provides individuals with opportunities to experience and participate in an unprecedented array of intercultural experiences. All of this defines a new global situation and requires new approaches to educating students to not only survive but prosper on this new geopolitical landscape. This requires that we venture into ethical and spiritual dimensions of the process if we are to go about it in a humane and psychospiritually productive way. This book, in the case study tradition, examined the lived experiences of 12 former high school students who participated in an exchange trip to Argentina, in connection with intercultural competency development.

Book Pedagogy of the Heart

    Book Details:
  • Author : Martin Kokol
  • Publisher : Rowman & Littlefield
  • Release : 2022-03-11
  • ISBN : 0761873171
  • Pages : 151 pages

Download or read book Pedagogy of the Heart written by Martin Kokol and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-03-11 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this honest and daring work, Kokol tracks his career beginning as a high school teacher in south Florida, up to a graduate student in Massachusetts, out to a university professor in Utah and finally in New York City, and then to a high school teacher once again in eastern Idaho. What he learns along the way is both surprising and revealing in new ways to an audience that might be in the process of becoming a secondary school teacher. The author has not only spent time documenting his growth as he winds up in very different places in this country, but also puts together an unusually insightful and long overdue blueprint on where we can go as educators in this rising age of Generation Z. What comes out is meant to drum up conversations both in schools of education at the university level as well as out in the trenches of public and private secondary schools. The author reveals not only his professional ideas, but also his personal journey, not at all easy in the zip codes in which he finds himself at different points in his career. His work is wonderfully honest, even refreshing and his readers will most certainly delight at the personal connection he succeeds at making.

Book Nurturing the Souls of Our Children

Download or read book Nurturing the Souls of Our Children written by Robert Mitchell and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2005 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sin of Obedience is one of the few works of fiction or non-fiction that looks profoundly and with deep personal reflection into the training of a Catholic priest. The novel, rich and accurate in detail, is the story of a young prodigy torn with between the rigid religious traditions and convictions of his mother and the more-humanity-oriented respect for freedom of his father. Building on his own experiences, including being the subject of sexual abuse by a seminary teacher, the author unfolds a picture of religious life in which the cornerstones of celibacy and a vow of obedience have forced seminarians and priests to make difficult and often impossible decisions in their own personal lives. This well-crafted story enables the reader to go along with a young boy, seminarian and priest on his idealistic pursuit and mission and the consequences he has to face as a result.

Book Quality in Higher Education

Download or read book Quality in Higher Education written by Brent D. Ruben and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of quality in higher education is by no means a new one. By one set of definitions or another, colleges and universities throughout the world have always held the pursuit of excellence as their primary goal. Why then has the quality approach, developed and popularized in industry, and how increasingly applied in health care and government, receiving so much attention in higher education at this moment? What does this perspective add to the approaches to excellence with which they have long embraced?These are the two primary questions that this book seeks to address. Chapters and contributors include: "The New Productivity" by Peter F. Drucker; "World War n and the Quality Movement" by J. M. Juran; "The Quality Approach to Higher Education: Context of Concepts for Change" by Brent Ruben; "The Big Questions in Higher Education Today" by L. Edwin Coate; "An American Approach to Quality" by Marilyn R. Zuckerman and Lewis J. Hatala; "Quality hi Higher Education: Critical Issues in Definition and Assessment" by Brent Ruben; and "Ten Areas for Future Research in Total Quality Management" by A. Blanton Godfrey. The volume is graced with an opening essay by Francis L. Lawrence, president of Rutgers University.Higher education is in the public spotlight today due to the many challenges it now faces: rising tuition costs; frustration about a tight job market for graduates; calls for increased faculty productivity; concerns about political correctness; and criticisms regarding the use of grant and research funds, among others. Quality in Higher Education is a particularly timely book that will greatly benefit educators, university administrators, students, and sociologists, and all those who are interested in higher education today.

Book The Artemis Archetype in Popular Culture

Download or read book The Artemis Archetype in Popular Culture written by Susan Redington Bobby and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2016-02-17 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many female figures in recent fiction, film, and television embody the Artemis archetype, modeled on the Greco-Roman goddess of the hunt. These characters are often identified as heroines and recognized as powerful and progressive pop icons. Some fit the image of the tough, resourceful female in a science fiction or fantasy setting, while others are more relatable, inhabiting a possible future, a recent past, or a very real present. Examining both iconic and lesser-known works, this collection of new essays analyzes the independent and capable female figure as an ideal representation of women in popular culture.

Book Archetypes in Religion and Beyond

Download or read book Archetypes in Religion and Beyond written by Robert M. Ellis and published by Equinox Publishing (UK). This book was released on 2022 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jungian concept of archetypes is of immense value for critically distinguishing what is potentially of universal practical value in religious and other cultural traditions, and separating this from the dogmatic elements. However, Jung encumbered the concept of archetypes with debatable constructions like the 'collective unconscious' that are unnecessary for understanding their practical function. This book puts forward a far-reaching new theory of archetypes that is functional without being reductive. At the centre of this is the idea that archetypes are adaptations to help us maintain inspiration over time. Humans are such distractable beings that they need constant reminders to maintain integration with their most sustainable intentions: reminders using the profound power of symbol linked to embodied experience. This multi-disciplinary book weaves together religious studies, ethical philosophy, the psychology of bias, the neuroscience of brain lateralisation, the linguistics of embodied meaning, the feedback loops of systems theory, with a lifetime's experience of Buddhist practice and appreciation of symbolism in the arts: all with the aim of producing a fresh understanding of the role of archetypes in religion and beyond, that can also be directly applied in practice.

Book Teaching and Learning for Wholeness

Download or read book Teaching and Learning for Wholeness written by Clifford Mayes and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-12-08 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Teaching for Wholeness, Clifford Mayes continues to expand the horizons of Jungian pedagogy, a movement that draws upon the thought of Carl Jung and Jungian scholars to address crucial educational issues and define new ones. Mayes leads readers through an analysis of Freudian and post-Freudian psychology in educational theory and practice, an examination of the epistemological foundations of Jungian thought, and a demonstration of how Jungian psychology can uniquely help teachers reflect deeply upon their roles as educators. Mayes also explores Jung’s view of symbolism and its implications for curriculum and the Jungian idea of “the shadow” as the launching point for an examination of education as reclamation of the soul, before concluding with the case for “individuation” as the proper goal of education.
