Research - Contemplative Pedagogies
Mapping The Tree of Contemplative Practices to Adult Learning Theory
​
This current project explores contemplative practice in education through a pedagogical analysis of traditional sacred instructional methods.
​
Since the Tree of Contemplative Practices was first published in 2004, it has been referenced or appeared in more than 100 publications. In some cases authors of research studies referenced or included the Tree in their methods section as an authoritative source from which practices were identified and selected. The Tree was originally intended to serve an illustrative purpose but has become an important resource for method selection and needs to be advanced as an instructional design tool. I am creating a design aid based on the Tree to assist educators in the selection of contemplative practices. My project takes an interdisciplinary approach (religious studies, learning science, cognitive/neuroscience, anthropology) and maps methods and contexts to learning theory and a range of instructional design parameters. The main question of my work: How might contemplative methods and instructional design approaches be combined into effective and measurable instructional strategies?

This data file was compiled using Google Scholar and other library research databases using the search term "contemplative pedagogy" only. The original purpose of this project sought to identify the first occurrences of the term in the literature and also to get a sense of in what kinds of contexts and publications the term was being used.
Google Scholar's search results are notably imperfect, so each item was investigated (links followed, duplicates eliminated, publication type, etc. confirmed). This list does contain a handful of citations for nonpublished work such as flyers for workshops prior to 2010.
