Who Cares?: A Quirky, Quantified, And Qualified Look At Caring, In Schools And Elsewhere - 9781667169125

Caring can be quantified, qualified and quirky. This publication uses the four components of caring (Noddings, 1984) as a theory and framework for my work. Caring cannot be explained solely by individuals' definitions, understanding, and descriptions of caring (Noddings, 2005). There needs to be a thorough and detailed analysis with examples of people's beliefs' and behaviors about caring in general, and in schools. Hence, the use of Noddings (1984) four theoretic components (modeling, dialogue, practice, and confirmation) will help guide the thinking in this book. This work has obtained data that is consistent with her well respected and comprehensive theory on caring. It also merges my personal life and experiences that has moved me to associate with this premise of caring in and out of schooling. The goal of this book is to present data that is quantifying, as well as informal qualitative assumptions on how one can understand and apply caring to one's life. The hope is that it presents an operational method that can help one live a more fulfilling life.
