In this article, Daniel Pierce, an Assistant Professor of Biology at the University of Richmond shares his cross-cultural experience of teaching biology to Tibetan Buddhist Monks exiled in India and how it influenced his teaching practice back home.
It would be quite appropriate for a college professor to assume students know that a tree is alive and a rock is not.
Or would it?
For several summers, I have had the pleasure of teaching biology to Tibetan Buddhist monks exiled in India. This program, called the ETSI (Emory-Tibet Science Initiative), was sparked by discussions the Dalai Lama had ..read more
