Description
This book offers various perspectives on children's spirituality and its relation to life and values education from diverse socio-cultural and educational contexts. It brings together a collection of select research articles that were published over a period of two decades (1999-2020) in the International Journal of Children's Spirituality (IJCS), to celebrate the journal's 25th anniversary.Featuring contributions by leading international scholars from U.K., U.S.A., Canada, Hong Kong, China, and Australia, this volume offers a multidisciplinary snapshot of children's spirituality and its relation to life and values education. It highlights the importance of socio-cultural and religious traditions, as well as perspectives on religious education and the spirituality of children shaped by religious, cultural and educational systems in specific societies and contexts. Chapters cover topics including the links between mirror neurons and human empathy and education; the relationship between spirituality and citizenship; the notion of inclusive spiritual education and the perspectives of spiritual education through the conceptual lens of transcendence, raised awareness and spiritualism; how outdoor play spaces can contribute to a child's spiritual development through enriching activities; and approaches to help nurture students' spiritual growth in their aspects of themselves (self), others, the environment, and with a Transcendent Other (transcendence).This volume will be a key resource for researchers and postgraduate students interested in understanding children's spirituality and its implications for spiritual, life and values education.
