Empowering Administrators Through Social and Emotional Learning, Session 2

Empowering Administrators Through Social and Emotional Learning, Session 2

Developing social and emotional skills is an ongoing process. In order for administrators to create conditions for teachers and students to effectively engage in social and emotional learning (SEL), they themselves need to experience and reflect on SEL strategies firsthand. This second session of a two-part workshop featuring SEL advocates Trisha DiFazio and Allison Roeser continues to explore SEL through the lens of an administrator and tackle issues specific to education leadership. SEL advocates Trisha DiFazio and Allison Roeser show viewers how to:

  • Reflect and build upon personal SEL best practices.
  • Deepen their understanding of how SEL can be used to foster collaboration among parents and educators.
  • Be equipped with strategies to support staff and students in their SEL development.
