讲座题目（Title）：Socio-emotional competencies for language learning and teaching
讲座摘要（Abstract）：
Emotions are at the centre of all human behaviour, and learning and teaching are no exception. The omnipresence of emotions makes it necessary for individuals to develop a set of socio-emotional skills, which encompass the following three key life competencies: a) self-awareness, or identifying and talking about emotions; b) self-regulation, or managing one’s own emotions; and c) empathy and relationship skills. Within psychology, these competencies are broadly categorised under the constructs of emotional intelligence (EI) and social intelligence (SI), two terms which became widely known through Daniel Goleman’s (1995, 2005) bestselling popular science books. Researchers in the fields of psychology and general education have indeed suggested that apart from standard IQ tests, strong socio-emotional skills are also indicators of being intelligent. This workshop will focus on reviewing theories of EI and SI, methods of researching them and their applications to foreign language classrooms.
