Social Emotional Skills | Online |

Socioemotional learning focuses on a set of social, emotional, behavioral, and character skills that support success in school, the workplace, relationships, and the community. The aim of this talk is to describe briefly what these important social emotional skills are and how they are shaping education in the XXI century.

In order to do this, the speaker will focus on a number of simple strategies which a teacher can use in order to develop these skills in themselves as well as in their learners.

• Teach students to embrace their own feelings.
• Recognise emotions and expand on the range of emotions you deal with.
• Focus on positive emotions, but do not shy from addressing negative emotions, when needed.
• Help students make responsible decisions.
• Set norms.
• Support diversity and empathy.
• Teach yourself and your students about breathing and the autonomic nervous system.
• Empower students.

From this perspective, the teacher will hopefully be perceived not just as a language model but also as a model of integrity for students to follow.
