The Humanistic approach to teaching gives the students more autonomy in the classroom!]]> 2018-02-08 17:15:40 UTC https://padlet.com/wilso343/a9bc63fpjad/wish/229694945 Student Success -Megan Wilson wilso343 https://padlet.com/wilso343/a9bc63fpjad/wish/229710237 This article looked pretty interesting when it comes to thinking about student success in relation to the Humanistic Theory of Learning. Here's the abstract: "The Student Success Skills program is an evidence-based, counselor-led intervention founded on a variety of humanistic principles. Five studies and a recent meta-analysis provide evidence that integrating human potential practices into the school by teaching students foundational learning skills strengthens the link between school counseling interventions and student achievement.

The author details the importance of teachers, promotes a more fluid approach to education, and explains how humanistic values affect students and teachers alike. I really appreciate her push for formal educational institutions to interact more closely with less formalized educational experiences throughout life in order to promote curiosity and responsibility. ]]> 2018-02-09 15:34:42 UTC https://padlet.com/wilso343/a9bc63fpjad/wish/230063161 Humanism in Higher Ed - Becca Galow rlgalow https://padlet.com/wilso343/a9bc63fpjad/wish/230091687 I didn't really expect to learn about the benefits of the humanistic approach from a guy in dental school, but I really enjoyed his perspective. The author describes positive relationships with the dean(s) and other faculty at his institution as beneficial to his education, and he stresses the importance of support and respect in educational environments. "Treat [students] with respect as colleagues-in-training from day one, and the students, the university, the educators themselves, and most importantly our great profession will see fantastic benefits for many years to come."]]> 2018-02-09 16:27:58 UTC https://padlet.com/wilso343/a9bc63fpjad/wish/230091687 Playing Around With Curriculum -Angela Morris agmorris https://padlet.com/wilso343/a9bc63fpjad/wish/231325003 Found this article on LISTA it talks about using an holistic approach and the importance of play as a trans formative learning theory. I believe this embodies the humanistic approach.]]> 2018-02-13 23:03:25 UTC https://padlet.com/wilso343/a9bc63fpjad/wish/231325003 Humanistic orientations to learning- infed Blog -A.Morris agmorris https://padlet.com/wilso343/a9bc63fpjad/wish/231331447 This blog is from YMCA George Williams College focuses on self-actualization. ]]> 2018-02-13 23:46:02 UTC https://padlet.com/wilso343/a9bc63fpjad/wish/231331447 Humanistic Theory brheer https://padlet.com/wilso343/a9bc63fpjad/wish/231343903 This Khan Academy video discusses the basics of the humanistic theory. I can see how this can be applied to education. I wonder if this theory influenced Montessori education? That is, allowing students to discover what interests them while the teacher is more of a guide?]]> 2018-02-14 01:22:36 UTC https://padlet.com/wilso343/a9bc63fpjad/wish/231343903 "Student-centred learning: a humanist perspective" by Tangney brheer https://padlet.com/wilso343/a9bc63fpjad/wish/231345456 This article from Teaching in Higher Education addresses some of my wonderments about humanism as I read through our posts. It seems to me that even researchers are little fuzzy on the topic!

Abstract:

"The notion of student-centred learning is often not defined; within the pedagogic literature it is generally associated with constructivism or principles associated with a constructivist environment such as building on prior knowledge, purposeful active learning and sense-making. An informal enquiry into conceptions of university staff prior to this study revealed a variety of interpretations warranting greater clarification and context. This interpretive study using a constructivist grounded approach focused on academic staff in art and design. It revealed a broader, more holistic conception of student-centred learning which is largely ignored in the literature and included ideas such as personal growth, consciousness raising and empowerment. It raises the question of whether humanist interpretations of student-centred learning should be more explicitly considered across the disciplines."]]> 2018-02-14 01:32:11 UTC https://padlet.com/wilso343/a9bc63fpjad/wish/231345456 Humanistic Learning Theory by Andrew P. Johnson kopardo https://padlet.com/wilso343/a9bc63fpjad/wish/232544523 "Human learning theory and human education enhance rather than detract from academic learning, intellectual
growth, and the development of basic skills. Human learning theory is concerned with personal growth and includes attention to students’ affective dimensions such self-concept, values, and emotions."
