The disruptions caused by the pandemic have not only disrupted academic learning but also threatened the mental, emotional, and interpersonal health of students across the globe. As we navigate this challenging time, it is essential to adopt a proactive and comprehensive approach to education that prioritizes the total development of every student.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn response to this need, this book offers original ideas and practical recommendations for educators in a post-pandemic world. Drawing insights from Confucian and Christian traditions, the book proposes that mindfulness is an orientation towards wholeness, where one experiences harmony and peace. Mindful education is realized through the establishment of a school community of ren (humanity) and agape (love), a transforming curriculum that centers on dao (way) and imago dei (gods image), empathic teachers who are motivated by shu (putting oneself in the others place) and the Golden Rule (do to others as you would have them do to you), and self-directed learners who develop themselves through xiuji (self-cultivation) and spiritual disciplines.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy applying ancient wisdom to contemporary settings, this book provides a valuable resource for policymakers, educators, researchers, and general readers. It offers a roadmap for promoting student well-being through mindful education, emphasizing the importance of holistic development, empathy, and self-awareness in the post-pandemic era.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 355g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 235 x 155 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9789811614071\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2021\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Charlene Tan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44103133233402,"sku":"9789811614071","price":91.62,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_3607bd66-2f67-4d5d-81fd-93ef218e36a2.jpg?v=1669751409","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/mindful-education-insights-from-confucian-and-christian-traditions-9789811614071","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
