Book description
By reclaiming the passions of our hearts and exploring insights and
ideas, we begin a remembering of ourselves. As we begin to reclaim our
wholeness, we also have the capacity to renew and revitalize our
institutions from within.
After a long career of writing and speaking about how living in
congruence-without division between inner and outer life-allows for
being present with ourselves and those who journey with us, Parker
Palmer and colleagues at the Center for Courage & Renewal
developed a process of shared exploration. This Circle of Trust®
approach encourages people to live and work more authentically within
their families, workplaces, and communities.
This issue explores the transformative power of engaging in a Circle
of Trust. The authors examine its direct applications to teaching and
learning, and they explore and discuss the research being done by the
facilitators of this work.
This is the 130th volume of this Jossey-Bass higher
education series. New Directions for Teaching and Learning
offers a comprehensive range of ideas and techniques for improving
college teaching based on the experience of seasoned instructors and
the latest findings of educational and psychological researchers.
