Social-Emotional Learning

Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) - the buzzword in education! Although around for many years, SEL is getting a lot of attention lately because children and adults are struggling in the areas of emotional and social development, developing and maintaining relationships, especially in the age of technology. Many are wondering what is social-emotional learning anyway.

SEL is the process through which children as well as adults understand and manage their emotions, have the ability to set and achieve positive goals, know how to feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships, and make responsible decisions.
