Back in July 2020, Sarah Mercer introduced us to Positive Psychology and the role well-being can play in education and in ELT (link). In this issue, we’re diving into other aspects of well-being. We set off on our journey by focusing on educational leaders in the Main video and then looking at both teacher and student well-being in the Lite video. Mohammad Khari summarizes the videos in his Introductory article.
We then navigate the learner side of well-being in the first three articles, examining resilience with Akiko Kiyota, inclusion with Heather Kretschmer, and hybrid teaching with Anna Ansari. Next, we venture into the territory of teacher well-being, getting a solid handle of it in Curtis Kelly’s article and then exploring reflective dialogue in Satoko Kato’s article. In the PLUS section, we travel beyond the context of education as Carla Marie Manly gives us practical tips for fostering healthy love relationships.
