Pursuing Social and Emotional Development Through a Racial Equity Lens: A Call to Action

Pursuing Social and Emotional Development Through a Racial Equity Lens: A Call to Action

Publication Year: 2018

Rather than equity and SEL pursued as two separate bodies of work, the field needs to identify ways in which equity and social, emotional, and academic development can be mutually reinforcing. To accomplish this requires examining issues of race directly; this can be difficult and uncomfortable, but we cannot avoid race and let the challenges go unacknowledged and, therefore, inadequately addressed.

Beyond Academic Learning: First Results from the Survey of Social and Emotional Skills

Publication Year: 2021

The OECD’s Survey of Social and Emotional Skills (SSES) is one of the first international efforts to collect data from students, parents and teachers on the social and emotional skills of students at ages 10 and 15. This report presents the first results from this survey. It describes students’ social and emotional skills and how they relate to individual, family, and school characteristics. It also examines broader policy and socio-economic contexts related to these skills, and sheds light on ways to help education leaders and policy makers monitor and foster students’ social and emotional skills.
