Well-being in our schools
Abstract
Our schools reflect the different realities present in our society. This diversity generates discrepancies that are not, at times, easily managed. All the different players in the educational environment are constantly interacting among themselves; and, as is the case with all systems, modifications to one element affect the others. Our habitual ways of thinking do not always include this interdependent and varied reality, and our strategies to resolve these difficulties, therefore, can have undesirable side effects.
Our well-being is not only a wish, but also a need. We want to enjoy our daily life. As humans, our way of assuring our survival when faced with daily challenges has been the practice of “fight or flight”. Intelligence, in the adaptive vital sense, implies knowing which of these options to choose. When the appropriate choice is to confront the challenge, we must know how to correctly choose the resources and methods to be successful.
