Contemplative education- Introductory programs

Resourcefulness, Clarity, Communication, Action, and Openness are the Five Qualities of Contemplative Education. Derived from Classical Tibetan Buddhist wisdom, these five have proven to be extremely successful for developing effective pedagogies for compassionate teaching.

Secular content areas such as language, logic, and the arts are invigorated and replenished by this adaptation of an ancient Buddhist curriculum. The workshop will use both didactic and experiential methods to examine teaching and learning styles from this perspective. As the teacher’s personal contemplative basis deepens, this transfers directly to the students’ learning experience.The benefit to both is a renewed appreciation for the dynamics of learning.

The workshops are also useful for parents and others who work directly with students,  young people, and children.
