Heart-Based Teaching: A Mindfulness Program for Preservice Teachers
Timothy W. Pedigo (Governors State University, USA) and Glenna Lambert Howell (Governors State University, USA)
DOI: 10.4018/978-1-5225-5748-7.ch005
Abstract
Heart-Based Teaching, a mindfulness training program embedded in the professional education curriculum of preservice teacher candidates, is described. Heart-Based Teaching prepares teacher candidates to model and teach mindfulness to help their future students achieve social emotional goals as well as to enhance the teacher candidates' own social emotional competencies. Theoretical and research bases of the program as well as specific elements of implementation are included: structure of the two required courses, mini-lecture/discussion topics of each class session, assignments, assessments, and rubrics. Some initial qualitative data that contributed to program development are presented, and parameters of an ongoing robust quantitative study are described. Heart-Based Teaching is presented as a replicable model for other teacher education programs.
