Building Teachers' Social-Emotional Competence through Mindfulness Practices
Dorman, Elizabeth
Curriculum and Teaching Dialogue, v17 n1-2 p103-119 2015
Recent research suggests that building teachers' social-emotional competence, including via mindfulness training, can improve teachers' overall effectiveness and well-being, help equip them with the tools needed to respond to the unique stressors of the teaching profession, and potentially reduce burnout and attrition. This article reports on a longitudinal action research study of integrating mindfulness practices into my teacher education courses. I discuss how the process evolved over time and present key themes in student perceptions of the practice. This study has implications for any practitioners interested in mindfulness incorporated into education settings.
