Synopsis

A unique handbook for collegiate faculty, instructors, administrators, and graduate students in education to help professional and technical students discover meaning and purpose through their scholarship. College students are looking for more than instrumental career knowledge and skills, they are looking for something to care about and build their lives around: a vocation. This book provides recommendations to enhance and amplify collegiate professional and technical instruction and curricula to support student discernment of vocation. Teaching to Inspire Vocation makes a case for teaching for vocation and provides a historical perspective on vocation in Western education. The core of the book focuses on the specific elements for an instructional framework on teaching for vocation.
