Building Intuitive Capabilities in University Settings
Sahadevan, Salil
Change: The Magazine of Higher Learning, v54 n2 p59-64 2022
Rationality is the cornerstone of our mainstream education. However, in varying degrees, we use intuition in our daily lives. According to Carl Jung (1921/2016), intuition is one of four major functions of the human mind, along with sensation, thinking, and feeling. If there is a domain of intuition, education should develop it as a complementary mode of comprehension. I argue for the need to build intuitive capabilities in university contexts and outline ways to guide that process.
