Charles Arthur Curran (1913–1978)〔http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1467-1770.1978.tb00133.x/abstract〕 was a Jesuit priest and psychologist who is best known as the creator of Community Language Learning (CLL), a method in education and specifically in Second Language Teaching. He was a central member of the psychology faculty at Loyola University Chicago,〔Douglas (Doug) Bower (2000). "The Person-Centered Approach: Applications for Living". iUniverse. p. 9〕 and a counseling specialist.〔Richards, Jack C. (1986:113) Approaches and Methods in Language Teaching〕 == Career== Curran received a Doctorate in Psychology from Ohio State University in 1944.〔Charles Arthur Curran (1976). "Counseling-learning in Second Languages". Apple River Press, p. 135.〕 As a psychologist and educator, he worked along with Carl Rogers,〔Robert Wallace Blair (1982). "Innovative approaches to language teaching". Newbury House, p. 104.〕 and took certain principles from person-centered therapy and applied them to the field of education. In 1952,〔Yayasan Obor Indonesia, 2006. IJELT, Volume 2, Issue 2, p. 8〕 Curran proposed the essential idea of the ''"Counseling-Learning"'' approach, or "counselearning".〔http://www.jstor.org/discover/10.2307/27505185?uid=3738664&uid=2129&uid=2&uid=70&uid=4&sid=21103880305553〕 He incorporated counseling techniques that take into account the students' feelings toward their learning experience, and are meant to lower the affective filter. In the early 1970s he proposed Community Language Learning as a method based on his approach. His views, which were mostly promoted and tested by his students Paul G. La Forge (1971) and Taylor (1979), among others, gained particular attention and prominence in the 1990s. As a priest, he wrote several books in which he addressed the topic of institutionalized religious education, and the theological concept of sin compared to the sense of guilt in psychotherapy.〔Curran, Charles A. "The concept of sin and guilt in psychotherapy." Journal of Counseling Psychology, Vol 7(3), 1960, 192-197.〕 Part of the problem of the human condition, in Curran's view, was the ''"mechanized concept of man,"'' or the idea that man is merely a machine (something that he saw as the result of industrialism and scientism, and criticized).〔(Counseling, Psychotherapy, and the Unified Person )〕 In his writings, he advocated a change in the "approach to the human person" or a "return to a more ancient unified view of man". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Charles Arthur Curran」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
