Religion In The Classroom, Allison Kay Carey
Religion In The Classroom, Allison Kay Carey
Honors Program Theses
When most people hear that one wants to increase the study of religions in a public high school most think that it will infringe on the constitutional rights of the students, but this is not the case. "Teaching about religion in the schools is often confused with the teaching of religion, or religious advocacy and indoctrination." This quotation describes why the study of religion has been left out, but it is imperative to understand why the study of religion is so important in a 21st century education. Diane L. Moore gave five main reasons why she felt students need to …
Spirituality And Counseling : An Integration Into Practice, Nikole D. Paulie
Spirituality And Counseling : An Integration Into Practice, Nikole D. Paulie
Graduate Research Papers
Mental health counselors have traditionally practiced the idea of separation, not integration, in regards to the exploration and use of spirituality in the counseling setting. Research and shifting trends have shown spirituality is not only important to clientele, but these clients also express a desire to incorporate their spirituality into counseling. Through enforcing appropriate competencies and guidelines, incorporating spirituality has proven effective within clinical settings. Counselors who do desire to integrate spirituality into counseling have limited resources available for guidance.
The purpose of this paper is three fold, to provide rationale for the integration of spirituality in counseling, discuss important …
Integrating Spirituality Into The Counseling Session : Facilitating Positive Changes, Bruce A. Gregory
Integrating Spirituality Into The Counseling Session : Facilitating Positive Changes, Bruce A. Gregory
Graduate Research Papers
Spirituality and religion can be very important and influential aspects of an individual's life, however the counseling process seems to lack a framework that addresses these two important areas. Although the literature continues to grow, this topic seems to lack a sense of congruence between therapeutic approaches and integrating spirituality and religion into this approach.
This paper briefly examines some of the existing literature on this integration and also incorporates some personal view points. It is hoped that the reader will, at the very least, begin to get a sense of importance in regards to his/her own spirituality and religion …
The Comparison Of Existential Psychology And Buddhist Spirituality, Jackie Nowparvar
The Comparison Of Existential Psychology And Buddhist Spirituality, Jackie Nowparvar
Graduate Research Papers
In this paper a comparison between Existentialism and Buddhism is investigated. The relationship is determined by comparing literature written in both fields of study. The focus of the paper concentrates on the importance of ontology, suffering, and death in both groups and how closely they relate to one another. The findings indicate that the spirituality of Buddhism and the psychology of Existentialism in combination, can culminate the experience of finding meaning in one's life and the discovery of self through the therapeutic experience. The paper will also provide a historical overview of Buddha himself and a review of his basic …
Spiritual Calling, Work, And Family : A Review Of The Literature, Jaymee Glenn-Burns
Spiritual Calling, Work, And Family : A Review Of The Literature, Jaymee Glenn-Burns
Graduate Research Papers
Literature on spiritual calling, work, and family was reviewed. This literature included definitions of calling, historical roots of calling in the Christian tradition, possible relationships of calling to career and counseling theories, and writings that address the various combinations of work, family, and calling or vocation. The author concluded that the limited literature encompassing the influences of calling on both family and work suggests a need for further research on this topic.

A Study Of Teaching About Religions In Selected Iowa Public High Schools, Douglas W. Sprague
Dissertations and Theses @ UNI
This study investigated public high school teachers perceptions about religions in the curriculum, and practices of public high school teachers when teaching about religions in public high school classrooms. The study used a modified version of the analytical induction model of qualitative research presented by (Bogdan & Biklen, 1982). Three pre-selected high schools in the state of Iowa were identified by the researcher for study. A common departmental structure was used to identify teachers from across the curriculum as participants in the study. The schools were of three different enrollment sizes. Thirty-four teachers who taught 79 different courses made up …
