Training Package

Structure of the Learning Path

The training package consists of four modules plus one zero module:

0 - What is emotional intelligence
1 - Perception of emotion: focused on the ability to perceive emotions in oneself and others
2 - How to develop students’ competence to use emotions to facilitate critical thinking
3 - How to develop students’ competence to understand what emotions are and how to understand emotional information and causes
4 - How to become an emotionally competent teacher

Each of the four ‘regular’ modules, lasting 90 minutes, consists of three parts:

1 - Introduction to present the topics of the module
2 - Multimedia material consisting of:
    a. Papers and chapters to read,
    b. A toolkit and a handbook to practise,
    c. Video and presentations to watch.
4 - A test for the self-assessment of acquired knowledge.

The Module 0, lasting 45 minutes, consists only of an Introduction and the Multimedial material.
At the end of the modules there is also an additional bibliography on the topics covered.

Due to the large number of multimedia materials on the topic, they were selected through three selection criteria:

1 - Scientific relevance, the content of the material is relevant, based on empirical evidence and/or scientific knowledge;
2 - Clarity, the material presents comprehensible, easily readable language and content structure;
3 - Accessibility, the material is easy to find and without fees (open access).
