M14 Emotional Intelligence Assignment
There are two parts to this assignment. You will submit the individual reflection in a text box on the next page. Then proceed to the discussion for Part II.
I. Individual Reflection
(1 paragraph/ 6-8 sentences):
Do you feel that you accurately perceive your own emotions? How do you “proceed” in spite of them (or by integrating them)? Think of a specific example. If you don’t wish to share something highly personal, consider a time that emotions of any kind threatened to get in the way of an academic assignment.
II. Discussion Post
Become an “expert” on a section of the text that corresponds to the first letter of your last name:
p. 1-25
Discuss what happens in your section
How do Jeannette and her siblings exhibit emotional intelligence in your portion of the book? Explain which dimension is being used (interpersonal, adaptability, or stress management) and find a quote that illustrates this quality.
Think of an image (ex: Dumpster) associated with the emotional intelligence instance or event you chose in the book. Find an image on the internet and post the image first in your discussion post, followed by your answer to questions #1 and #2.
