Reflection, Action and the Double Transformation
Journal Title: Theology and Philosophy of Education - Year 2024, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
An examination of the ‘Jocist’ reflection/action method as a tried and tested means of effective social transformation as well as profound personal transformation for the individual. Widely recognised for its efficacy as a tool used among young workers and students, the reflection/action method is equally valuable in animating lay women and men, of all ages, in the much neglected work of the lay apostolate and the task of being a ‘leaven’ in the world (Lumen Gentium N31).
