Mieke Abraham is a practical lecturer in teacher training at UCLL, known for embodying a harmonious alignment between her personal and professional life. Her approach to education emphasizes reflexivity, vulnerability, and the integration of theoretical ideals into daily practice. Drawing from scholars like Chris Argyris, Donald Schön, and Jozef Masschelein, her work explores the interplay between espoused theories and lived actions in teaching.
Her research interests focus on educational philosophy, particularly the 'meditation' of teaching as a lifelong practice of aligning thought and action. She engages with themes of self-care, hospitality to the unknown, and the transformative impact of embracing uncertainty in pedagogy, inspired by philosophical frameworks like Abraham’s journey in Genesis.
Mieke’s teaching style reflects a commitment to fostering curiosity and critical engagement, as seen in her interactions with students and children. She emphasizes the importance of presence and authenticity in education, rejecting rigid control in favor of adaptive, human-centered practices. While no awards or grants are explicitly mentioned, her narrative highlights her role as a mentor and practitioner deeply embedded in educational theory and practice.
