Monitoring Social and Emotional Learning Competence for Every Student

Learn from educational leaders and SEL experts in a round table discussion about the importance of developing the social and emotional competencies of students and how to make it happen.

Discussions will focus on effective practices related to CASEL’s indicators of districtwide SEL, especially:

• Shared ownership for SEL
• SEL embedded in district systems and structures
• Explicit SEL programs and practices implemented with fidelity

In addition, panelists will discuss measurement and badging for social and emotional competencies. Some of the topics of this webinar will include:

• How will social and emotional learning impact schools and districts as well as individual students?
• How will we know if students are developing social and emotional competencies?
• How do we create systems in schools that systematically ensure SEL?
