Toward Curriculum for Being: Voices of Educators (Curriculum Issues and Inquiries)

Five teacher-scholars examine in a series of papers written over several years what it means to teach, to work together, to seek new forms of curriculum, and to engage in interpretive inquiry. Some of the metaphors that surfaced in their conversations and writing are Education as Journey, Language as Meaning, and Teacher as Pilgrim. Themes that grew out of their dialogue about these metaphors and their implications for curriculum and teaching include The Meaning of Questioning, Alienation, Detour, Caring, and Dwelling.

Being Called to Care

<p>Although the major part of this book focuses on rethinking nursing education, the essence of this book, the notion of “being called to care” is of relevance to all human service professionals who are responsible for ministering to the needs of others. The authors set the context for what it means to be “called to care” and explore ways of responding to a call. The three themes of vulnerability, authenticity, and structure are presented as foundational. Using a hermeneutic, interpretive approach to inquiry, insights are presented to uncover ways of conceptualizing and practicing curriculum through processes that join persons together in dialogue and reflection.</p>
