Abstract:
(Show)
Mindful Learning shows how successful teachers put caring into action to provide both personal support and instructional enrichment. Using this approach, teachers integrate efforts to care for students as people - the "affective" portion of the curriculum - with efforts to extend their understanding of content - the "academic" dimension of instruction.
