The Role of Spirituality in Culturally Relevant and Transformative Adult Education.
Tisdell, Elizabeth J.; Tolliver, Derise E.
Adult Learning, v12 n3 p13-14 Sum 2001
Assumptions underlying teaching for transformation and cultural relevance include (1) how is spirituality defined; (2) transformative learning involves cognitive, affective and symbolic/spiritual aspects; (3) transformative learning must attend to sociocultural dimensions (personal, cultural, structural, political, sacred); and (4) instructors must bring their authentic selves.
