A.2.07 – Group Discussion

30 minutes

Tutor leads a group discussion/debate on the topic: ‘What makes someone emotionally intelligent?’

The objective is to have a collaborative discussion in order to define Emotional Intelligence together and to come up with a common definition.

In the center of the first page of the flipchart, the tutor will write “EI”.

The goal of this activity is to design a mind map about EI. The tutor is not teaching; s/he is facilitating the discussion. [The tutor should be aware of the process of developing a mind map.]

The tutor should be patient, listen to everyone and take notes on the flipchart of the key arguments.

This session should develop an understanding in learners that will deepen during the next activity.
