“…Similar to the work of Fry (1997), Kelchtermans and colleagues' (e.g., Kelchtermans, 2005;Kelchtermans & Ballet, 2002a;Kelchtermans & Ballet, 2002b;Kelchtermans & Vandenberghe, 1998) work provides an interesting window into the micropolitics that are often an inherent feature of everyday life for teachers. In particular, this body of research explores how beginning teachers come to understand and navigate their way through the political aspects of their work.…”

“…In particular, this body of research explores how beginning teachers come to understand and navigate their way through the political aspects of their work. It is a part of learning that Kelchtermans and Ballet (2002a) consider significant in teachers' general professional development. Indeed, they argue that any theory on teacher development would be incomplete without recognition of how teachers deal with the inevitable contested character of what they do.…”

“…At the heart of Kelchtermans and colleagues' work is the issue of how new teachers develop "micropolitical literacy," that is, the process by which new teachers learn to read the micropolitical school landscape and write themselves into it (Kelchtermans & Ballet, 2002a). Rather than viewing new teachers as passively sliding into an existing context, Kelchtermans and Ballet (2002a) highlight how the development of micropolitical literacy is both interactive and interpretive.…”

“…Rather than viewing new teachers as passively sliding into an existing context, Kelchtermans and Ballet (2002a) highlight how the development of micropolitical literacy is both interactive and interpretive. Drawing on the work of Zeichner and Gore (1990), they suggest that although new teachers are influenced by the school context, they can, at the same time, affect the structures in which they are socialized (Kelchtermans & Ballet, 2002b).…”

According to Jones, Wells, Peters, and Johnson (1993), being political is a necessary part of a coach's repertoire, because a coach's effectiveness and longevity may depend not only on a favorable win-loss record but also on an individual's ability to gain the approval of contextual power brokers (e.g., athletes, other coaches, or owners). Although only limited research has been done examining power and interpersonal relationships in coaching, there remains a paucity of work investigating the micropolitics inherent in such relationships. The aim of this article is to make the case for how the adoption of a micropolitical perspective could serve to further our understanding of the power-ridden, contested nature of sports coaching. After an introductory examination of the concept of micropolitics in the educational literature, a discussion of how such practice is beginning to emerge in recent ethnographic coaching research is presented. The literature addressing the micropolitical nature of teachers' interactions and relationships with other pedagogical stakeholders is then explored in terms of providing future avenues of critical investigation into the social complexity of coaching. Finally, a concluding section summarizes the main points and highlights their implications for future work.

“…In gathering baseline information about the respondents, this discourse made use of the respondent's robotfoto, which in Dutch means a cartographic sketch of a suspect in a criminal investigation (Kelchtermans & Ballet, 2002). This instrument was employed to determine the demographic information (e.g., gender, age, GPA, etc.)…”

The responsibility of academic institutions to produce holistically developed individuals puts compounded pressure on the school administrators to raise students' achievement. While most learning institutions put a premium on readying its learners in attaining scholastic success, it is quite apparent how most Philippine schools neglected to put an ample attention to one's emotional and social growth. This current study utilized a descriptive-correlational design-with a randomized sample of 203 university academic achievers between ages of 16 to 21-to generate relationships among factors derived from Emotional Quotient-i: Youth Version (EQ-i:YV) and academic performance as measured by General Pointed Average (GPA). Pearson's correlations suggested that the overall emotional intelligence has significant positive associations with intrapersonal, interpersonal, stress management, adaptability and general mood scales while overall emotional intelligence and its composite scales are related to academic performance. Thus the findings affirmed the claim that the more the academic achievers become emotional-social intelligent, the higher their tendency to exude academic prowess. This study further highlights the potential implications of emotional intelligence in educational progress and academic success; hence emotional intelligence-based activities should be integrated in higher education curriculum.
