Resumen
FERNANDEZ-MARTINEZ, Ana María y MONTERO-GARCIA, Inmaculada. Contributions to emotional intelligence education from early childhood education. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2016, vol.14, n.1, pp.53-66. ISSN 1692-715X. https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.1412120415.
A teacher’s task is not just the transmission of academic knowledge but also involves guiding students so that they have rich and innovative learning experiences throughout their lives. In this way teachers guarantee that students will be able to tackle challenges with better understanding, creativity and sense of responsibility. Emotional intelligence education can be an important tool in achieving this aim. However, for a long time emotional intelligence education has not been used by schools because it was considered that it hindered cognitive development. Thanks to the results of many studies we now know that emotion and cognition are not only compatible but are also inseparable and mutually beneficial to each other through the circular relationships that exist between them. Finally, the authors propose some actions from early childhood education that facilitate the teaching of emotional intelligence.
