Taylor Swift – Lyrics as Poetry

Service Description

Learn Critical Thinking with Emotional Intelligence by practicing literary criticim of a popular Talyor Swift lyric. Learning to think critically does not mean we say “you did something wrong”. It means we think clearly, rationally and creatively about complex, ambiguous situations. It means we identify assumptions which may have big impacts. Situations are ambiguous due to limited information or conflicting priorities. And when our emotions are not acknowledged, they affect our thought processes in random or even negative ways. Learning Outcomes Learn the importance of paying attention, and why attention to the subtle - not always obvious - is so important. Become aware of how your emotions transition to other emotions in real time. See emotions as a critical but misunderstood dimension of human cognition. Be motivated to understand them better. Learn how our motives are affected by momentary emotions. Learn better how to focus on our own internal states and thus make better decisions. Target Audience Knowledge workers of all seniority, who want greater influence and success in the world. Critical thinkers make sense and reveal opportunities and flaws that often go unnoticed by others.
