Abstract
In this chapter, we described how a gratitude intervention, which aims to increase student well-being, was integrated with Academic and Social Skills Building Seminar (ASSB), which aims to develop academic skills among students—in line with positive education’s goals of incorporating a well-being component to traditional education. In Part I, we provide an overview of the gratitude intervention and ASSB, and the basis for their integration. Part II describes how the gratitude intervention was integrated to ASSB, and presents the modules of the integrated program. Lastly, in Part III, we describe the pilot implementation of the integrated program, feedback from students and counselors, and insights gained from its initial implementation. Then, we present the recommendations for an improved program based on the findings of the pilot study and discuss future directions for program implementation and research.
