Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Education in the twenty-first century demands that we deal with the whole child, not just the mind. This requires going beyond the historical 3 R's of reading, writing, and 'rithmetic and focusing on five new R's: Relationship, Respect, Responsibility, Relevance, and Rigor. As educators, we must increase our efforts to understand youth and truly connect with them in ways that make them want to learn. By caring to teach, we are teaching students to care. Join Dave Opalewski and Anna Unkovich as they share their combined wisdom and passion for teaching, and their educational philosophy of developing students' hearts as well as minds.

Book excerpt: With numerous examples to supplement her rich theoretical discussion, Nel Noddings builds a compelling philosophical argument for an ethics based on natural caring, as in the care of a mother for her child. In Caring—now updated with a new preface and afterword reflecting on the ongoing relevance of the subject matter—the author provides a wide-ranging consideration of whether organizations, which operate at a remove from the caring relationship, can truly be called ethical. She discusses the extent to which we may truly care for plants, animals, or ideas. Finally, she proposes a realignment of education to encourage and reward not just rationality and trained intelligence, but also enhanced sensitivity in moral matters.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book advances a re-imagined view of caring in higher education. The author proposes an argument of rhythmic caring, whereby teachers hold back or release their judgments in such a way that students’ judgments are influenced accordingly. In doing so, the author argues that rhythmic caring encourages students to become more willing and confident in articulating their understandings, judgments and opinions, rather than being prematurely judged and prevented from re-articulating themselves. Thus, rhythmic caring can engender a different understanding of higher education: one that is connected to the cultivation of values such as autonomy, justice, empathy, mutual respect and Ubuntu (human dignity and interdependence). This book will be of interest and value to students and scholars of caring within education, as well as Ubuntu caring through the African context.

Book excerpt: In a seemingly tumultuous time of political change, caring and healing are needed now more than ever. This is especially true in education, which has been criticized for a disproportionate focus on the technical aspects of teaching with less focus on its “human” aspects. Creating Caring and Supportive Educational Environments for Meaningful Learning is a collection of innovative research on the practical and theoretical questions involved in organizing traditional and nontraditional areas of study around themes of care and support for students within the framework of current educational systems and standards. While highlighting topics including service learning, ethics of care, and student mental health, this book is ideally designed for teachers, administrators, researchers, and academicians seeking current research on the importance and ethics of the human aspects of education.

Book excerpt: Caring is an essential aspect of teaching; teaching is a quality of caring. Previous studies on caring have been limited by its abstract construct and elusive concept and only limited perspectives have been briefly observed. The purpose of this exploratory study is to deepen our understanding of caring: to show how context influences students' attributions of teacher caring, to investigate whether students understand and appreciate the goals of caring, and also to identify caring and uncaring teacher behaviors. Moreover, the study will help to define and enrich caring using the personal states of self-esteem, self-efficacy, personal control, optimism, sense of belongingness and consistence/persistence. The exploratory study investigated twenty-eight students from the Boys & Girls Club in northeastern Wisconsin. The data is generated from two student-surveys, the second of which solicited responses while watching a sixteen minute DVD of teaching vignettes and a conduction of personal interviews. The findings of the exploratory study demonstrated that caring is an essentail aspect of teaching. It showed that context influences high school students' attributions of caring and uncaring teacher behaviors. The findings also revealed that high school students are more concerned with the teachers' caring motives than their actual behaviors. The findings also illustrated that high school students understand and appreciate the importance of caring. Moreover, it idenified some uncaring teacher behaviors as perceived by high school students. Qualitative analysis of the data showed that high school and middle school students believe that teachers can be boring and caring at the same time.

Book excerpt: This collection explores the changing meaning and enactments of care in teacher education in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, from preservice teachers and teacher candidates to in-service teachers and education faculty. Over fifty international teacher educators explore the complicated concept of care in different content areas, learning contexts, and communities of learners, using different conceptual frameworks and methodological orientations. Throughout, this book situates research and reflection at the nexus of teacher education, care, and COVID-19 in order to reconstruct care in post-pandemic teacher education. Timely and incisive, this collection raises important questions and offers relevant examinations to consider how post-pandemic teacher education as a field will move forward in preparing and caring for those who will, in turn, care for their future students. The book is essential reading for teacher educators, scholars, and anyone interested in the notion of care in education.
