Annotated Bibliography: passion and education
Books
1. Maiers, Angela. “The Passion-driven Classroom: A framework for teaching a learning"
This was a sort of “how-to” book. It concerned "how-to" encourage passion in the classroom. The goal and vision is great but I'm still searching for someone who has compiled all the litt out there on the topic. I have yet to find it. The examples mentioned were mostly from elementary levels of education.
2. Robinson, Sir Ken. “The Element: how finding your passion changes everything”
3. Pink, Daniel. “Drive: the surprising truth behind motivation”
The title “Drive” is actually a bit of a misnomer because if you explore the book Pink's work is often interested in fostering passion and not simply fostering drive or action.
4. Pink, Daniel. “A Whole New Mind: why right brainer’s will rule the future”
A more recent book with expands and extensions of previous ideas.
5. Gardner, Howard. “5 Minds for the Future”
Two of the "minds" Gardner proposes will serve us well in the near future are the “creative and the disciplined mind”
6. Friedman, Thomas. “The World is Flat: A Brief history of the 21st century”
Journal Articles
1. Aleinikov, A. G. (1990) Creative Pedagogy and Creative MetaPedagogy, The Progress of Education, Vol. LXV, No. 12, 274-280
2. Richard Florida's works: The Creative City, The Creative Class, etc.Note: I do have issues with Florida’s neo-liberal learnings. The goal of my research is not to create passionate students in order to bolster our ecomony with a passionate workforce. My interests are passion for the sake of creating confidence, self-trust and thus drive and action, plain and simple. I'm interested in Florida's work because of it's timely popularity and it’s for that reason that I borrow here.
