Grieving as a Teacher's Curriculum by Edward Podsiadlik Iii
Podsiadlik integrates educational philosophy, literary analysis, and reflective practice to examine ways in which grief can illuminate the nuances and complexities of a teacher's life and work.
"Grieving as a Teacher's Curriculum awakened each of my senses: my classroom became more vivid and more invigorated; it manifested a sharpness I'd not felt; and I saw and heard my students with clarity and a new urgencyIn this wise and surprising work Edward Podsiadlik shows us that grief is an essential part of the human condition, and mourning, an expression of our shared humanity. There is no room for grievance here, for whining or complaint, but only for the steady heart-beat of life as it's actually lived. Podsiadlik encourages us toward a fresh authenticity as he carefully and skillfully blows up the border wall between "teacher" and "human being." I put the book down, trembling, and happy again to be a teacher in this broken world." – William Ayers, Distinguished Professor of Education and Senior University Scholar (retired)
