Accolades: Janet Kremenitzer
Posted 12/8/2005
Janet Pickard Kremenitzer, assistant professor of education and coordinator of elementary education, ENHP, recently published an article, titled “The Emotionally Intelligent Early Childhood Educator: Self-Reflective Journaling,” in the peer-reviewed Early Childhood Education Journal.
There is a growing awareness that the development of social and emotional skills in children is critical for the foundation of academic knowledge in the classroom. The early childhood educator is in a position to be a powerful nurturer of social and emotional development in young children, according to Kremenitzer. It is important, she says, to challenge early childhood teachers, particularly veteran teachers, to take a closer look at their own social and emotional skills and to systematically reassess these skills through an emotionally intelligent “lens.”
The field of emotional intelligence is a new and intriguing area of academic research that looks at emotional abilities within four domains: perception skills; accessing skills; understanding skills; and regulation skills. Kremenitzer's article presents a methodology to assess and enhance the emotional intelligence abilities of teachers, and thereby impact the abilities of the children they teach.
The article appears both online and in print: ISSN: 1082-3301 (print version); ISSN 1573-1707 (electronic version) Journal no.10643 Nov 16, 2005. Read Kremenitzer’s article online.
