espanolEn los EE. UU., los campus universitarios son testigos de un numero cada vez mayor de graduados con problemas emocionales. Los estudiantes se enfrentan a un mundo cada vez mas inestable e incierto debido a la creciente discordia politica, el terrorismo, las tensiones entre las potencias mundiales, y mas. Factores adicionales estan afectando aun mas la salud emocional de los estudiantes universitarios. Las investigaciones muestran que el compromiso excesivo con la tecnologia digital –como la alta frecuencia de los mensajes electronicos– afecta negativamente la sensacion de bienestar de los usuarios. Los volumenes extremos de textos y tweets enviados y recibidos evitan que la gente se sienta “desconectada” y presente durante cualquier situacion dada; la multitarea se ha convertido en un comportamiento normativo, tanto para profesionales como para estudiantes. Con el tiempo, estas tensiones debilitan el pensamiento cognitivo y emocional, asi como la salud fisica, y contribuyen al numero record de estudiantes de pregrado que buscan servicios por problemas de salud mental. En respuesta a toda esta problematica, muchas universidades de EE. UU. estan adoptando tecnicas pedagogicas dirigidas a la salud mental de los estudiantes. Conocida como “Pedagogia Contemplativa”, estos metodos simples pero altamente efectivos apuntan a disminuir los niveles de estres, mejorar la sensacion de bienestar y aumentar la “atencion plena” para que los estudiantes se sientan mas presentes en el aula. Al adoptar estos metodos pedagogicos, el desarrollo emocional y cognitivo de los estudiantes se fortalece. Este documento tiene como objetivo proporcionar a los educadores una conciencia de los crecientes desafios emocionales experimentado por estudiantes universitarios y tambien proporciona a los educadores metodos practicos para incorporar tecnicas de pedagogia contemplativa en sus aulas para el exito academico y personal de los estudiantes. EnglishAcross the U.S., college campuses are witnessing escalating numbers of undergraduates experiencing emotional challenges. Students face an increasingly unstable and uncertain world due to rising political discord, terrorism, tensions between world powers, and more. Additional factors are further impacting college students’ emotional health. Research shows excessive engagement with digital technology –such as the high frequency of electronic messaging– negatively affects users’ sense of well-being. The extreme volumes of texts and tweets sent and received prevent people from feeling “unplugged” and present during any given situation; multitasking has become the normative behavior for professionals and students alike. Over time, these stresses weaken students’ cognitive, emotional, and physical health, and contribute to the record numbers of undergraduates seeking services for mental health issues. In response, many U.S. colleges are adopting pedagogical techniques that target students’ mental health. Dubbed “Contemplative Pedagogy,” these simple yet highly effective methods aim to decrease stress levels, improve a sense of well-being, and increase “mindfulness” so that students feel more present in the classroom and beyond. By adopting these pedagogical methods, students’ emotional and cognitive development is strengthened. This paper aims to provide educators with an awareness of the rising emotional challenges experienced by college students today. This paper also provides educators with practical methods for incorporating contemplative pedagogy techniques into their classrooms for students’ academic and personal success.
