‘Pedagogische tact’ verwijst naar het vermogen om optimaal te reageren in complexe klassituaties. Hoe ontwikkel je dat vermogen? Door je intuïtie te ontwikkelen. (…) Intuïtie is een vorm van begrijpen die snel en spontaan is. Zonder bewust na te denken heb je in een oogwenk een situatie beoordeeld, afwegingen gemaakt, een besluit genomen en gehandeld.

Abstract
Nowadays educational challenges require increasing pedagogical tact of teachers. Intuition serves this swift and appropriate classroom action, but teachers are rarely encouraged to use it. This mixed methods study investigated the effects of intuition-focused professional development on teachers’ pedagogical tact. Questionnaires measured teacher change, and showed large positive effects on teachers’ immediate pedagogical actions, and medium effects on the related classroom outcomes. Interviews with participants and their colleagues elaborated and explained positive changes in awareness of intuitions, and information processing, and classroom impact. This study defines and operationalizes intuitive pedagogical tact and describes meditative and embodied practices for enhancing it.
