Description
Book SynopsisHumanistic education developed several decades ago as a reaction to unhealthy environment and exposure to detrimental condition in education. This book has authors from across the globe writing about theories concerning humanizing of pedagogy, exploring the impact of service learning among undergraduates and emphasizing the development of responsibility and to promote critical thinking, through pedagogical appropriate interventions.
