First, choose a quote or paragraph from one of the two Emotional Intelligence (EI) articles you read. Spend some time grappling with it–do you agree with it? Question it? What about it struck you? Try to contextualize it for your peers. Then, consider a time when Emotional Intelligence has played a role in your life, either in work or in school. Tell the story, and focus on the role of EI. Finally, EI and critical thinking are often lumped together as key skills for the workplace, and yet many people believe that you either have them or you dont. How can we (either professors or students) foster these types of skills? Should we? Be as specific as possible. (approx. 400-500 words)
