Social and Emotional Aspects of Learning

Most schools will be addressing the SEAL initiative in their own unique manner. The topic of Alcohol and underage drinking gives many opportunities to address this initiative. One of the main ways that the teacher can try to enhance SEAL in the classroom is through the variety of activities and tasks that the students are asked to engage in.

The SEAL initiative uses the five dimensions of emotional competence, (listed below), developed by Daniel Goleman Ph.D., in his book, Emotional Intelligence.

Self Awareness Self Management Motivation Empathy Social Skills

Many of the suggested activities in this document are built upon Structures for use in the classroom developed by Dr. Spencer Kagan. He saw the opportunity to use Goleman’s five dimensions of emotional competence to develop approaches to learning that will enhance the development of student Emotional Intelligence. The approach is about how you teach and not what you teach.

The following extract is taken from Dr Kagan’s Online Magazine Autumn 2001

“With his book, Emotional Intelligence, Daniel Goleman (1995) revolutionized the thinking of many educators. He demonstrated that emotional intelligence ("EQ" for short, standing for Emotional Quotient) can be more important than IQ in determining not just academic achievement, but also job and life success. Goleman did not create the concept of emotional intelligence, but he did a masterful job of pulling together the research supporting its importance. Goleman not only showed why EQ is important, he suggested many ways EQ can be developed by schools. Whereas all of those ways are powerful and worthy of adoption by teachers and administrators, there is an approach to developing EQ Goleman did not explore: Regular use of structures. Our very best hope for developing EQ among pupils is the daily use of simple instructional strategies called structures — using EQ structures as part of every lesson, at all grade levels, and across all curriculum areas. Adopting EQ structures is not a change of curriculum; it is a change in instruction. Ironically this shift in approach to instruction revolutionizes what is learned in school far more than could any possible change in academic curriculum.”

All the Kagan Structures can be found in the book: Kagan Cooperative Learning by Dr. Spencer Kagan & Miguel Kagan http://www.kaganonline.com/index.html
