Abstract
The principles of positive psychology have been studied for many years, but it seems to be only recently that the benefits of these techniques are being accepted by the wider community of mainstream pedagogues. In this article, we describe the principles of positive psychology and then highlight its benefits for both students and instructors. Finally, we discuss strategies and tips for implementation in the higher education classroom, both in-person and online.
