EDU 206 Supporting Social Emotional learning in Education Settings 3 Credit(s) This course introduces the fundamentals of supporting students’ social emotional learning (SEL) in PreK-12 educational settings. The field of SEL has grown rapidly, and educators today are expected to understand, support, and navigate students’ academic and SEL needs, including trauma-informed practices. This is a course that aims to help students understand what SEL is, why it is important in education today, and how to begin to teach these non-negotiable skills in PreK-12 and community-based educational systems. Specifically, this course supports current and future educators in understanding: the wide range of students’ SEL needs; how to build self-awareness as an educator to understand the impact of educators’ own SEL needs on students; and how to intentionally design instructional and social environments where students and adult educators can do their best learning together. Elective. Three lecture hours per week.
