Educating for Happiness: How Positive Psychology and Social-Emotional Learning Are Shaping the Future of Education

Are our schools preparing children for success or well-being?

In an age of rising stress, disconnection, and mental health struggles among students, traditional education is no longer enough. Parents, educators, and policymakers are asking urgent questions: What does it mean to thrive in school truly? How do we prepare children not just to perform, but to flourish?

Educating for Happiness offers a powerful answer: by integrating the science of positive psychology and the practice of social-emotional learning (SEL) into the heart of our classrooms.

In this groundbreaking book, you’ll discover:

· How happiness, emotional intelligence, and resilience impact academic performance and life outcomes

· Proven strategies for teaching SEL that foster empathy, self-awareness, and healthier relationships

· Real-world case studies from classrooms that are already transforming student well-being

· Practical frameworks for educators, administrators, and parents to build more emotionally intelligent schools

· The future of education—and why student well-being is its cornerstone

Backed by cutting-edge research and years of experience at the intersection of psychology and education, the author makes a clear and urgent case: emotional and mental health are not extras, they are essentials.
