EDN 558 - School and Community-based Applications of Social Emotional Learning

This one semester, three credit course embeds field based experience and provides opportunities for students to utilize theoretical and research-based data and knowledge related to Social Emotional Learning in an existing program at their schools or in their community. Students will identify competencies of social emotional learning in an existing program in their school/community. This includes whole class, small groups, outreach programs, or an after-school program (this can be a community based program). Students will synthesize the tools learned from other relevant coursework to identify competencies/domains, assess their effectiveness or make suggestions for improvements based on their observations. A minimum of fifteen hours will be spent on this field experience.
