Schools primarily focus on teaching academics. However, with the rate of suicide, cyber bullying and school violence on the rise, it is time that changes. Schools need to start educating the whole student. In addition to academics, schools and teachers need to begin developing social emotional learning skills. Some of the benefits of teaching social emotional learning include improved attitudes, relationships, student social and emotional skills, academic performance and better attendance. In this three-credit online course, participants will learn how to create a positive classroom climate where students feel safe. Students who feel safe in their classrooms are more likely to solidify and retain concepts long-term, which in turn will impact student achievement. By the end of the course, participants will be able to identify the five key competencies of social emotional learning and design lessons that utilize digital tools to develop students' social emotional learning skills.

You'll walk away with no prep instructional routines and strategies as well as sky high confidence that this will be your best year yet!
