Edutopia explains why acquiring SEL (social and emotional learning) skills is beneficial for students and highlights four areas, where useful competencies can be enhanced and also ways to incorporate SEL skills into these areas.

Visual and Performing Arts: in the process of creating and presenting art, students become more conscious of their feelings and more capable of acknowledging and expressing them.  The four artistic processes are available for review under this link. As for instructors, exposing students to various ideas and drives behind creating art develops their students’ perspectives. To learn more about arts education in conjunction with developing SEL skills, visit this link.

Social Studies: paying attention to what serves society and contributing to joint interests takes a willingness to identify and comprehend other people’s needs and emotions. Developing SEL skills, students would find it right to embrace collaboration. As for instructors, daily application of SEL skills in classroom activities would promote the achievement of objectives set by social studies. To find out how students could be more involved in the process of social decision making, explore the site Rutgers SECD lab.

Health: it is of utmost importance to assess health choices both on the individual and the societal levels; from substance use all the way to providing health care. Self-awareness helps students acknowledge their needs and be conscious of their health without being affected by external influences. As for instructors, it is vital to make students understand the temporary and permanent outcomes of their actions and apply SEL skills combined with health education. To read more about how SEL can be applied in Health and Physical Education, visit the following site.

English Language Arts: to advance the process of conceptualized reasoning, thinking of solutions to complex issues, students are encouraged to read and gain an understanding of different subjects. This will expose them to more complicated texts and introduce them to a successful academic path. As for instructors, it is important to identify if students understand the written texts or struggle with emotional difficulties to fully apprehend them.
