Subject:
Science
Topic:
Role of group behaviour
Objective:
Traditional classrooms can mimic a factory model as schools face standardized learning, testing, and evaluations. Educators who incorporate social and emotional learning and empathy into their classrooms provide positive life skills and essential tools for students.
The field of social and emotional learning, or SEL, is an educational process leading to the development of emotional intelligence. According to the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL), five components to SEL include the following: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making.
Rational:
What really stood out to me while reading Dalia Hochman's paper was the importance of acknowledging emotion, social awareness and relationship skills inside the classroom. We are all humans; humans that breath, sleep, eat, laugh and cry all the same. I believe it's crucial to incorporate and educate students on emotional and social learning, hence why this lesson is geared towards this topic.
