Book synopsis

Bhutan's development philosophy of Gross National Happiness (GNH) is being recognised as an alternative approach to development. This book provides a comprehensive account of how the education system in Bhutan has re-emphasised values education through an innovative approach called Educating for GNH (EGNH) in the schools. The content of the book is an outcome of the author's Ph.D. work. It is based on a conceptual framework showing the interrelationship between three related constructs - perceived efficacy beliefs, transformative learning and dynamics of change. It presents an evidence-based discussion of principals' and teachers' level of self- and collective efficacy, perceptions of importance, support systems, actions and impacts of EGNH. It would be of interest to educators and scholars interested in infusing humanistic values into their education system. Furthermore, this book could be of use for the beginning researchers who wish to employ complex sequential mixed methods research. It provides a step-wise approach to writing case study reports, conducting cross-case analysis, and collecting, preparing, and analysing quantitative data using SPSS.
