How to Help Students Confront Life's "Big Questions"
Walvoord, Barbara E.
Chronicle of Higher Education, v54 n49 pA22 Aug 2008
Many college students are interested in spirituality and the "big questions" about life's meaning and values, but many professors seem not to know how to respond to that interest. In this article, the author offers several strategies to help students confront the "big questions". One way is to structure assignments and discussions so that students can have a chance to bring critical thinking directly into relationship with their own experiences and beliefs.
