MPSY 612 - Secular Ethics and Contemplative Pedagogy in Education

(4 cr)
(Prerequisites: PSYC 505, PSYC 510)
This course investigates how to best introduce the cultivation of basic human values and contemplative practices into education on the basis of sound research, assessment, a developmental psychological approach, and a firm grounding in the pertinent theories of emotions, conflict resolution, contemplative practice, and social and emotional intelligence. Students will look at existing evidence-based programs and research. For their final project, they will design an intervention that builds on existing programs and research, or they will propose an innovative research design for evaluating such programs.
