The New Illiteracy: Is Emotional Intelligence the Skill We Stopped Teaching the Moment We Needed It Most?

Schools have gotten better at teaching students to code, test, and compete — but emotional intelligence, the skill that determines how people handle stress, relationships, and leadership, barely makes the curriculum.
