The Best Reason to Social Network [ December 4th, 2008 ] Posted in » Happiness

When you’re happy, you can start a happiness virus through your social network, according to a Harvard and UC San Diego study.

So update your Twitter and Facebook status with good things and spread the love!

No conclusive info about when you’re down, although I know that’s as good a people repellant as B.O.

An Experiment for Teachers to Help Students Be Goal and Achievement Oriented

That title sounds very serious - but I am very excited about an experiment 2 teachers have agreed to try.

They are handing out stickers on which students will list 5 goals — the first required goal being to get an A in the class. The rest are up to them. Upon the first report I got, the students were very excited and engaged in the exercise.

I’m going to track progress in a SuperViva discussion forum. If you’re a teacher and want to participate, get in touch!

If you’re an expert in the area of goal setting and want to formalize this as a "study" it would be interesting to collaborate as well.
