Empathy in Action: How Teachers Prepare Future Citizens | #DigitalCitiZENship #digcit #ModernEDU | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
From www.edutopia.org - April 26, 2017 4:30 PM

Empathy is systemically related to all of the abilities on the compass, particularly to self-awareness at "true south." Research suggests that the more children become aware of themselves, the better they become at understanding others. Volumes have been written about how to teach empathy, and there is still much to learn. In an excellent article from the Greater Good Science Center at the University of California, Berkeley, author Roman Krznaric, Ph.D., claims that highly empathetic people:

Cultivate curiosity about strangers


Challenge prejudices and discover commonalities


Gain direct experience of other people's lives


Listen and open themselves to others


Inspire mass action and social change


Develop an ambitious imagination


All of these behaviors foster personal growth and lifelong learning while contributing to the growth of society, particularly empathy's role in inspiring social change.

Oskar Almazan's curator insight, April 26, 2017 7:05 PM
How do children learn to care enough about others that they reap the personal rewards associated with giving? When young people develop empathy, they not only thrive in school and life, but they also impact their communities in positive, often extraordinary ways. Individual and societal success depends on raising and educating children who care about others. But we have misled today's children to believe that success is achieved through test scores, material wealth, and personal gain. In turn, there has been a measurable shift toward self-centeredness at a time when society depends more, not less, on people who give of themselves.

Curiosity: The Heart of Lifelong Learning | LEARNing To LEARN

Curiosity: The Heart of Lifelong Learning | LEARNing To LEARN | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
From www.psychologytoday.com - April 14, 2015 8:32 AM

If you suspect that curious kids fare better in careers and life, you're right—for a variety of reasons. Research suggests that intellectual curiosity has as big of an effect on performance as hard work. (link is external) When put together, curiosity and hard work account for success just as much as intelligence.

.

Another study found that people who were curious about a topic retained what they learned for longer periods of time (link is external). And even more impressive, research has linked curiosity to a wide range of important adaptive behaviors, (link is external) including tolerance of anxiety and uncertainty, positive emotions, humor, playfulness, out-of-box thinking, and a noncritical attitude—all attributes associated with healthy social outcomes.

Warning: Good Grades May Harm Student Health

Warning: Good Grades May Harm Student Health | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
From rootsofaction.com - January 13, 2013 6:50 PM
by Marilyn Price-Mitchell, Ph.D. This article makes the case that good grades matter far less in school than developing internal strengths like critical thinking, compassion, and curiosity.

 

Even for children who naturally perform well on academic tests, a good grade is only one measurement of success.

 

===> A few things that school testing cannot measure include: <===

 

- Open-Mindedness

- Effort

- Social & Emotional Intelligence

- Critical Thinking

- Initiative

- Creativity

- Collaboration

- Curiosity

- Respect

- Kindness

- Capacity to love

- Honesty

- Compassion

 

Internal strengths, like those listed above, are far more important to a life of success and well-being than whether a child earns an “A” on an Algebra exam or are accepted to a top-rated university. In fact, many tests only measure a student’s ability to produce a correctly memorized answer.

Gust MEES's insight:

I completely agree with Marilyn... and the mentioned points should get (more) integrated in any schools...

The importance of being well rounded in learning.
Louise Robinson-Lay's curator insight, January 20, 2013 4:23 PM

Something teachers have known for a while and are continually fighting against in media perceptions. There are more I portent things than grades.
BookChook's curator insight, January 21, 2013 5:36 PM

Such a dilemma for parents, kids and teachers who can see the big picture but are locked into a testing regime.

As we seek to refine and reform today’s system of education, we would do well to ask, “What is education?” Our answers may provide insights that get to the heart of what matters for 21st century children and adults alike.
