Teacher Self: The Practice of Humanistic Education

Based on Temple University’s course, The Art and Science of Teaching , this is a text about the practical side of humanistic education. It intends to draw the student-teacher into a series of narratives that develop as scenes from a play. As the drama unfolds, the reader becomes part of a classroom where the teacher’s strategy shifts from speaking to listening and where students teach and teacher learns. The book demonstrates how to create a lively learning environment in which everyone involved can expect to be interactive and effective.
