Everybody has IQ and EQ; however, not everyone knows how to manage them. In the Thursday’s class, we were talking about the death from our pets and friends; it reminds me about EQ in education. Nowadays, kids in school are all has higher IQ, but lower EQ than before. EQ and IQ are related to each other; however, instead of focusing on the EQ education, teachers in the classroom are paying more attention on the IQ education. Part of EQ is about emotion management, it is a system requires time to build up gradually; also it is something that a child needs to think about deeply. Traditional teaching system is more emphasizes on comforting sorrow, guiding students out of circumstance. Nonetheless, students were not benefited from their or others’ experience, in other words, next time when the similar situation happens, they are going to be at a loss as to how to meet the situation.
The only way we can do to reduce the risk of death is to wake up the awareness. Learning to get lessons from our or others’ experience, converting sorrow to encouragement is an important task and a long journey for all educator.
- learning lessons from our or others’ experience (observe, record, analysis)
- knowing how to relax, calm down and avoiding the excessive stress
- realizing to care about people (compassion)
