Читать книгу Social-Emotional Learning and the Brain - Marilee Sprenger B. - Страница 13

According to experts, empathy is a major problem for today's students (Borba, 2016). In this chapter, I define different types of empathy and describe how, throughout brain development, we can see where activity related to empathy is located and which chemicals are released during empathic episodes. Some neuroscientists believe that empathy leads us to compassion, and these two ideas are considered. I share examples of what empathic students do and how empathy can be modeled, as well as strategies to teach empathy and compassion to all students.
