"Caritas" in the Classroom: The Opening of the American Student's Heart.

Lawry, John D.

College Teaching, v38 n3 p83-87 Sum 1990

The quality of the student-teacher relationship is critical in opening the heart and mind. The highest form of learning occurs when the teacher loves and accepts the student so fully that the student feels safe enough to go within to see himself/herself and emerge with new answers about his/her life.
