Social-emotional learning (SEL) is defined as “the process of developing the self-awareness, self-control, and interpersonal skills vital for school, work, and life success.” By developing these positive traits, students are better able to cope with everyday challenges and benefit academically, professionally, and socially. Individually, children thrive, and schools improve the quality of their product students. On a macro level, workplaces benefit, and society strengthens as a whole.
