Description
Most people would not associate Confucian philosophy with contemporary education. After all, the former is an ancient Chinese tradition, and the latter is a modern phenomenon. But this book shows otherwise, by explaining how millennia-old Confucian ideas and practices can inform, inspire and improve school administration, teaching and learning today. Drawing upon major Confucian texts such as the Analects and Mencius , as well as influential thinkers such as Confucius, Zhu Xi and Empress Xu, the various chapters address current educational issues and challenges such as the following:
- What roles do schools play in fighting the coronavirus pandemic?
- How can humanity resolve the climate emergency?
- What (more) should school leaders do to promote education for girls?
- Is there more to lifelong learning than just skills upgrading?
- What is missing in the existing frameworks on 21st century competencies?
- What new initiatives are needed to champion sustainable development?
Confucian Philosophy for Contemporary Education
answers the above questions and more by presenting a Confucian model of education. The author proposes a Confucian school where Dao - a shared vision of human excellence - is realised through a mindful, learning-centred, action-oriented and ultimately humanising form of education.This book is a useful resource for academic researchers, educators, students and general readers on Confucian philosophy and its continual relevance for present-day education.
