Framed by work in critical global education and the spiritual paradigm, this research departs from existing literature by examining the role spiritual pedagogy has on the development of open-mindedness, empathy, and interconnectedness. This approach allows me to illustrate the complementary nature of critical global education and spiritual paradigm and how this pedagogical approach advances how social studies educators think about teaching from a globally minded perspective.Through the use of multiple interviews, class sessions from social studies methods for Middle Childhood Education, in-class reflective writing, and online discussions, this ethnographic study helps us understand the following: (1) spiritual pedagogy as transformative, most specifically to influence open-mindedness, empathy, and interconnectedness; (2) the significance of listening and dialogue in the classroom; (3) the identification of spiritual pedagogy as connected to social studies education and global education; and (4) shifting understanding in the role of and place for spirituality in education. These findings indicate the importance of integrating spiritual pedagogy in the teacher education classroom, highlighting its ability to lay the foundations for developing critical global educators. Spiritual pedagogy creates space for teacher candidates to develop as open-minded intellectuals and as educators who value a shared sense of purpose in an interconnected global community. Education that encourages the inner and intellectual work of spiritual pedagogy and develops habits of mind challenges teacher candidates to examine how they view the world and their place in, as well as responsibility to, the larger global society. 2014-12-26 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1403734827 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1403734827 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
