Daniel Goleman Quotes About School

• Educators, long disturbed by schoolchildren's lagging scores in math and reading, are realizing there is a different and more alarming deficiency: emotional literacy. And while laudable efforts are being made to raise academic standards, this new and troubling deficiency is not being addressed in the standard school curriculum. As one Brooklyn teacher put it, the present emphasis in schools suggests that "we care more about how well schoolchildren can read and write than whether they'll be alive next week."

• El éxito escolar no se predice tanto por el dominio de los hechos o la capacidad precoz para leer como por las medidas emocionales y sociales; ser seguro de sí mismo y estar interesado: saber qué tipo de comportamiento se espera y cómo refrenar el impulso de portarse mal; ser capaz de esperar, seguir instrucciones y pedir ayuda a los profesores; y expresar las necesidades sin dejar de llevarse bien con los demás niños.

This daunting task requires two major changes: that teachers go beyond their traditional mission and that people in the community become more involved with schools as both active participants in children's learning and as individual mentors.

  or happiness in life, our schools and our culture fixate on
  academic abilities, ignoring the emotional intelligence that also
  matters immensely for our personal destiny.

• There are some surprising payoffs with only a few minutes' practice, like eliminating the loss of concentration that multitasking usually brings.
