Can we teach emotional knowledge?

I'm studying this month an on-line course coordinated by Teresa Pozo (CEFIRE) and I would share this interesting video about teaching emotions.
John Meyer ‘We can teach emotional knowledge’ (2009)
The main ideas are the following:
Theory about emotions by John Meyer:
  1.   Perceiving emotions
  2.  Managing emotions
  3.  How emotions can enhance thought
  4.  Understanding emotions

People can have a high IQ but use it to be nasty. That’s why we..
Separate values and virtues from intelligence.
Increasing Intelligence= changing the capacity of carry on abstract reason. (psychologist focus)
But can we teach emotional knowledge? He said yes,

It will improve our skills? We don’t know yet, but some studies said we are interested in improving our social relations and that’s a wonderful thing.
