Abstract

Heuristics are tools to nudge our awareness and our behavior. Much of what we do is enacted without awareness of what is most important to us. We can easily autopilot through a day or more without consciously connecting our actions to our purposes in life. Before we know it, our lived experiences can become a series of unsatisfying monotonous tasks.

In this chapter, I present a rationale for why I developed a Life Purposes Heuristic that is informed by Dignity Therapy. Grounded in contemplative practices of reflection and awareness, I suggest that identifying purposes in life and making meaning of lived experiences can enlighten community college students’ reasons for learning.

In my experience, the institution of community college is not designed for reflection and purpose identification thus, I propose that students enrolled at two-year post-secondary academic institutions is a group well suited to benefit from a heuristic to help with illuminating their learning experiences. My Life Purposes Heuristic is included for review and utilization.
