Greater Good Educators & Greater Good Schools

Greater Good Educators is a virtual community of practice that provides a safe and supportive community in which to deepen your understanding and practice of the science of a meaningful life in education. Educators from around the world learn with and from each other through a guided exploration of topics related to character strengths and individual and collective well-being.

For Greater Good Educator alums who want to make lasting change in their classrooms, grade-level cohorts, schools, or districts—or if you’re part of an educational organization working with schools—Greater Good Schools supports small teams in carrying out a project of their own design over the course of a year. Launching soon! Sign up for our newsletter to hear the latest.

    “We scientists need partnerships with organizations like the GGSC because we’re not experts in reaching loads of people on a regular basis. Providing sustained delivery of content that’s thoughtful, not over-the-top, appropriately measured, and empirically grounded—that’s what the GGSC does better than anybody.”

    ― Barbara Fredrickson, Ph.D., Kenan Distinguished Professor of Psychology, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
