Description

Slow Looking: A New Approach to Learning Through Observation Shari Tishman explores the benefits of slowing down in learning environments, arguing that patient attention can lead to active cognitive opportunities for meaning-making and critical thinking. This book draws on examples from various fields, including art, literature, science, and everyday life, to illustrate the complexities and rewards of slow looking. By examining the multi-disciplinary applications of this practice, Tishman makes a compelling case for its importance in teaching and learning. The result is a nuanced understanding of how slow looking can enrich our educational experiences and promote deeper engagement with the world around us. Through original, real-world scenarios, Tishman demonstrates the value of slowing down in pursuit of knowledge and understanding.
