Transcendent Teaching
Engrossment
Definition: “an open, non selective receptivity to the cared-for” the one caring focus on the cared for’s project. (Noddings, 2011, Pg. 211)
"When I care, I really hear, see, or feel what the other tries to convey" - Noddings, 2011

Example: The one-caring listens and responds in a way that the cared-for receives and recognizes. When the cared-for receives the caring effort, the caring relation is completed.
The teacher must see things from the learner's point of view.
