This book includes papers written by teachers and how they engage
holistic education in their classrooms. The papers come from a
course taught by Jack Miller at the Ontario Institute for Studies
in Education at the University of Toronto entitled The Holistic
Curriculum. This is a rich and diverse collection of papers showing
how holistic education can be brought into public education despite
the pressures of testing and other accountability measures.
Although most of the teachers teach in public schools there are
also examples from teachers working in private and post secondary
settings. This book can inspire other teachers who are looking for
ways to teach the whole person in a more connected manner. There
are very few texts in the field of holistic education that include
the voices and practices of teachers, particularly those working in
public schools. Many of the examples of holistic education in
practice come from Waldorf, Montessori, Reggio Emilia and
alternative schools. A unique feature of this book is the many
different voices of teachers describing their work in the
classroom; they talk about their successes, the challenges and even
a few failures.
