Video Recordings

The goal of videotaping lessons in a teacher training process is to bring about change in the behavior of preservice teachers to promote self-awareness, openness, and development. The research question was whether preservice teachers, after watching the video recordings of the lessons they taught, would undergo a process of development and increased openness, or remain on a plane of self-criticism. The present qualitative discourse analysis study examined the data based on the principles of social and emotional learning (SEL). The data were organized according to SEL categories: self-criticism, self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, interaction management, and accepting responsibility. Participants in the study were 100 preservice teachers studying in teacher training institutions in Israel. Most preservice teachers (93%) were found to be critical of themselves, but they also tried to open up to a process of self-awareness (82%) and to change their behavior. Some participants (11%) remained “shackled” to their critical attitude and failed to break through the “wall of self-criticism” and change their behavior. Most participants (76%) showed social awareness and mindfulness of their feelings and of those of others; empathy and ability to read signals sent by their students; listening to others as opposed to being emotionally deaf; attention to the nature of interactions with students during the lesson, to how they moved about the classroom and used their voice, and whether they made eye contact with learners. To bring about change, the teacher must watch, observe, and investigate, and be able to better understand emotional and social situations. Teachers who had experienced social and emotional learning are likely to develop self-awareness and the ability to bring about openness, development, and change in their own behavior and in the behavior of their students.

Education advocates argue that effective schools should foster multidimensional educational goals that not only include cognitive but also non-cognitive outcomes. One important non-cognitive outcome are social and emotional skills. Previous research showed that for enhancing students’ social and emotional learning (SEL) one of the most important factor is the teacher. Hence, the present study investigated teachers’ familiarity, beliefs, training, and perceived school culture with regard to social and emotional learning and its facets self-awareness, self-management, and social-awareness by applying a convergent parallel mixed-method design. We conducted in-depth interviews and an online survey with secondary teachers from different countries. The reason for collecting both qualitative and quantitative data was to obtain different but complementary data on the same topic in order to bring greater insight into this research question than would have been obtained by either type of data separately. Teachers reported an uncertainty and a lack of professional skills and knowledge in delivering SEL instructions that was particularly low for self-awareness and self-management. Therefore, in both study parts, teachers expressed strong interest in receiving professional SEL training. However, schools rarely provide resources (instruction materials, specific courses or activities) or create conditions (training teachers, devoting teaching hours, increasing number of counselors at schools, receiving school administration support), that would promote teachers’ instruction of SEL. The results do not only add to researchers’ knowledge about teachers’ SEL familiarity, beliefs, training, and school culture, but are also relevant for policymakers, administrators, and school staff by identifying critical aspects that prevent successful SEL in schools.

Rapid Spread

In the spring of 2020, the rapid spread of COVID-19 caused schools in the U.S. to shift to online education. With the drastic change to online learning, the transition caused many issues that negatively impacted students' and educators' social and emotional learning (SEL) that helped ensure educational productivity. Social and emotional learning includes five competency areas: self-awareness, relationship skills, social awareness, self-management, and responsible decision making. Virtual learning has shifted the attention of educational institutions away from these competency areas due to the limitations of digital classrooms and the prioritization of academic intelligence over emotional intelligence. The chapter provides recommendations to address the social and emotional learning of educators.

Systems Of Support

Despite the need for assessments targeting social and emotional learning (SEL) skills within multitiered systems of support, there are few brief SEL measures available. To address this need, this article describes the development of the Social Skills Improvement System—Social and Emotional Learning Brief Scales-Teacher Form (SSIS SEL b-T), a significantly shorter version of the Social Skills Improvement System—Social and Emotional Learning Edition Rating Form-Teacher (SSIS SEL RF-T). Using the SSIS SEL standardization sample and item response theory, we identified efficient sets of items for each SSIS SEL RF-T scale and examined psychometric evidence for resulting scores. In general, SSIS SEL b-T scales functioned well and very similarly to scores from corresponding SSIS SEL RF-T scales. One exception was the Self-Awareness scale which, similar to its long-form counterpart, exhibited several content and psychometric limitations. Results provide initial psychometric evidence for a time-efficient teacher-informant measure of SEL competencies with promise for use within multitiered systems of support.

This study investigated the impact of class-level variables on the effectiveness of a universal middle school social and emotional learning (SEL) program, as reported by students (7th to 9th grade) and their teachers. There were 746 participants (Mage = 13.38; SD = 1.36), comprising 576 in the intervention groups and 170 in the control groups. Results from both self- and teacher reports identified positive intervention gains in social awareness and self-control. According to both types of informants, rural school students benefitted more in social awareness, whereas teacher reports attributed bigger gains in social awareness to 7th- and 8th-graders. These results highlight the importance of class-level variables when analysing the effectiveness of SEL programs.

Social And Emotional Competencies

<p>The aim of this study was to analyze students' social and emotional competencies through the integration of Think Pair Share (TPS) and a Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) approach to topics related to Ac­ids and Bases. Social and emotional learning (SEL) is the process through which children and adults under­stand and manage emotions, set and achieve positive goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships, and make responsible decisions.. The study involved  thirty-five 11th grade students in one of private school in Jakarta  and was conducted between January and April, 2017. A qualitative methodology was employed to analyze students’ social and emotional competencies using inter­views, classroom observations, reflective journals, and student worksheets. The application of a SEL ap­proach was carried out by integrating it with a TPS strategy.  In the <em>Think</em> stage students were given the opportunity to explore their understanding of acids and bases and to solve problems individually. In the<em> Pair</em> stage they could communicate their insights to the group, and in the <em>Share</em> stage they had occasion to present their group perspectives and respond to others.  The five social and emotional competences found in this study were; self awareness, self management, social awareness, relationship management, and re­sponsible decision making. Self awareness was demonstrated by understanding a student’s abilities, their needs, and their self- confidence. Self management was indicated by a student’s ability to manage pressure, plan strategies, and seek help. Social awareness competencies were analyzed through the development of students' attitudes to diversity and how they demonstrated care for friends. Relationship management com­petencies were identified by observing a student’s ability to manage friendships, how they overcame differ­ences, and whether they provided assistance to each other. The responsible decision making competency was determined by observing how students made decisions when trying to solve a problem and whether they were able to plan a strategy when facing pressure. Whilst integrating SEL the researchers were chal­lenged by the need to empower students, encourage teachers to stimulate students’ social and emotional competencies, and to manage time constraints. Integrating SEL into chemistry learning provided opportuni­ties for students to develop their social and emotional competencies through independent thinking activities, group discussions, and presentations to their peers.</p>
