Description

Emotional Intelligence (EI) is vital for mental health, which is defined by the World Health Organisation (WHO) as “a state of well-being in which every individual realizes his or her own potential, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to her or his community”. EI is a greater predictor of success in almost every field of work than either prior work experience or standard IQ score. The seminar aims at promoting the awareness of the importance of EI and providing tools for developing EI through education.    The course gives teachers the opportunity to enhance their understanding of emotional intelligence and how to apply that understanding in a teaching role in an informal environment and help others manage change and deal with stress.   The daily programme can be found here.

Learning objectives

The specific objectives are:
  • Enhance educators’ emotional intelligence so they can communicate with learners more effectively, support their learning process better and become better leaders
  • Provide methods for developing emotional intelligence in adults
  • Raise understanding of the role of emotions in motivation and pursuing goals
  • Provide tools for expanding self–awareness, self-control and self-acceptance
  • Introduce methods for effective coping with stress
  • Enhance interpersonal (social) intelligence and interpersonal communication
  • Provide tools for improving empathy
  • Raise tolerance and appreciation of human diversity

Methodology & assessment

The methodology of the training course includes a learner-centred approach and a focus on enhancing continuous personal development. The aim of the training is not to produce ready-made solutions (passive learning), but to inspire the participants to search creatively for knowledge and effective solutions, which are connected to their needs and challenges (active learning). In this way, the participants take responsibility for their own learning process and act as active partners in the training.

Attention will be given to how to implement the findings and skills in real daily working situations after the training course. Methods such as debate, pair and group work, and individual practical exercises will be used throughout the course.

Assessment of the course combines formal and non-formal assessment methods such as self-evaluation at the end of the course and formal evaluation forms provided by the organisation.
