Daniel Goleman

Peter M. Senge

A New Approach to Education

The Triple Focus

Scott Wilson

Interesting book in the form of an essay in five parts. I felt that the authors spoke as though the reader understood the concept of systems based intelligence - a bit more information (like definitions) could have aided in the comprehension of the topic.

I found Peter Senge's section the hardest to understand because of the lack of definitions.

The only challenge I would raise with Daniel Goleman is of his suggestion to move much of the academic subjects to online learning so that there would be additional time allowed for the SEL framework they are proposing. I would have thought that the systematic approach would have been rather to incorporate the SEL into the everyday learning with potential for a start of day and end of day discussion - to move SEL into the system so to speak and to use it as the framework to bind the subjects together.
