Description
Happiness and Education explores what we might teach if we were to take happiness seriously as a goal of education. Nel Noddings examines the nature of happiness, how we can help children understand it, and how our current approach to education falls short in promoting true happiness.
The book discusses various aspects that contribute to happiness, including making a home, parenting, cherishing a place, character development, interpersonal growth, finding work one loves, and participating in democratic ways of life. Noddings also considers how schools and classrooms can be designed to foster a cheerful environment.
