Hope: A Virtue for Teaching and Educational Practice
- Wed, Apr 22, 2026
- 4:00 pm
Meeter Center Lecture Hall
Join us to hear Dr. Kendra Thomas (Hope College) and Dr. David I. Smith (麻豆社) report on early progress from a current Kuyers Institute project funded by the Templeton Religion Trust. They will discuss the limitations of current cognitive models for studying hope among children and adolescents, present an emerging framework for studying hope as a virtue, and offer examples of connections to classroom teaching and learning. The presentation will include an opportunity for interactive learning and reflection on your own conception of hope.
Faculty, staff and students welcome. Refreshments provided.
