This book advances a re-imagined view of caring in higher education.
The author proposes an argument of rhythmic caring, whereby teachers
hold back or release their judgments in such a way that students’
judgments are influenced accordingly. In doing so, the author argues
that rhythmic caring encourages students to become more willing and
confident in articulating their understandings, judgments and
opinions, rather than being prematurely judged and prevented from
re-articulating themselves. Thus, rhythmic caring can engender a
different understanding of higher education: one that is connected to
the cultivation of values such as autonomy, justice, empathy, mutual
respect and Ubuntu (human dignity and interdependence). This book will
be of interest and value to students and scholars of caring within
education, as well as Ubuntu caring through the African context.
