    good lens. Reading as well as the arts in general tend to build stronger intelligences in children. In my life experience, as a musician, I have found myself to be noticeably more intelligent emotionally compared to my non-musician friends. There's a "code" of sensitivity in the arts (literature, music, fine art, etc) that students pick up on and construct that awareness, the emotional intelligence.

    this is an excellent lens on some points that should ( an in this lens) are discussed. I think both are linked, and this needs to be promoted.

    An important discussion -- may I recommend a book that I have: "Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ" by Daniel Goleman.

    My students seem to fall into two categories, the ones that care to much and the ones that don't care at all. It's worrysome. My children care, but not as much as I do. People are changing and not necessarily for the better.
    Great thought provoking lens.
    Thanks for sharing.

    This is an excellent, important piece of work. Emotional intelligence and the development of true moral understanding in children is not the high priority it should be in our society. I'm lensrolling this to one of my personal pages, My Childhood in Books, as I think it's relevant to your emphasis on reading.

    Compassion is something I've had in my heart for as long as I can remember. It wasn't something I was taught but a deep part of my soul that defines me and always has. I'm not sure you can actually teach compassion, although, perhaps a good teacher could awaken a compassion that was there to begin with and only needed to be nurtured. Interesting lens!
