DE105: Consciousness-Based Education

2 Credits

Enrollment now open

This introduction to Consciousness-Based education, as brought to light by Maharishi, is being offered for the first time online by three leading authorities on the subject: Dr. Susie Dillbeck, Dr. Chris Jones, and Dr. Annie Balkema. This course provides an overview of theory and classroom practice of Consciousness-Based education not offered before to the general public.

The course is being offered for the first time this fall, September 29 to December 7th, with the first online meeting on October 1st. There will be one online hour-long weekly meeting, plus approximately four hours of lectures, reading assignments, and online assignments per week completed at times of your convenience.

Dr. Dillbeck, who made the video lectures for the course, worked directly with Maharishi for 35 years, learning and applying the principles of teaching and course design that most efficiently unfold the full creative potential of the students. She shares this knowledge in the course. In addition, students will be reading the most significant research and theory on Consciousness-Based education as part of their weekly homework.

After taking the course, students will fully understand and be able to describe the unique features and benefits of Consciousness-Based education, and how this system produces its consistently excellent results worldwide, irrespective of country or culture.

For academic credit or simply enjoyment: Students may take the course for credit and receive feedback on all assignments; or they may take it not for credit and just enjoy all the lectures and discussions.
