Research Overview
My research interest lies in the anthropological study of teaching and learning. Currently, I am undertaking a research project that seeks to understand the historical development and phenomenological experience of Contemplative Education in the U.S.. Contemplative Education can be seen as a case of interaction between modern scientific-educational frameworks and Eastern/ancient wisdom traditions. I hope to gain insight into how 'Eastern' traditions and practices are imagined, circulated and experienced in a global context, across cultures, at the personal, sensorial level.
