Educational Innovations

Goleman has published a series of dialogues with More Than Sound Productions entitled "Wired to Connect" on the applications of social intelligence. Those already published include:

  • Psychiatrist Daniel J. Siegel
  • Renowned brain researcher Richard Davidson
  • Expert on the social and economic effects of Internet technologies Clay Shirky
  • Film director and Educational innovator George Lucas
  • World-renown psychologist on emotions Paul Ekman

A topic of his discussion with Ekman was how to empathize with others, and how we can understand other's emotions as well as our own. Goleman suggests that in light of tragedies like Hurricane Katrina, we must learn how to empathize with others in order to help them. Goleman and Ekman are both contributors to Greater Good magazine, Greater Good Science Center, University of California, Berkeley.

Famous quotes containing the words educational and/or innovations:

    I am not willing to be drawn further into the toils. I cannot accede to the acceptance of gifts upon terms which take the educational policy of the university out of the hands of the Trustees and Faculty and permit it to be determined by those who give money.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

    By such innovations are languages enriched, when the words are adopted by the multitude, and naturalized by custom.
    Miguel De Cervantes (1547–1616)
