What is Social Emotional Learning

Social Emotional Learning (SEL) teaches tween and teen students how they can use their education to improve the lives of people within their direct contact and community.

 

Programs focused on Social Emotional Learning (SEL) are especially imperative as we continue to see a surge in the popularity of “all of about me” products, services, and online communities that hold the ability to desensitize active users to “real world” communicative skills. This includes social outlets such as MySpace, Facebook, You Tube and other outlets that are aimed at the tween and teen markets.

 

In February 2011, First Lady, Michelle Obama, known for her overall wellness advocacy, told the Today Show that she’s “Not a big fan of young kids having Facebook. It’s not something they need. It’s not necessary right now.”

 

A Social Emotional Learning (SEL) program such as the one developed by Orly Wahba, Founder and President, of the New York based non-profit Life Vest Inside, strives to intertwine a fun Social Emotional Learning (SEL) experience, within the public and private school systems, where results can be definitively measured in numbers.

 

According to Illinois State Board of Education, the top three goals of a Social Emotional Learning (SEL) program is (1) Develop self-awareness and self-management skills to achieve school and life success. (2) Use social-awareness and interpersonal skills to establish and maintain positive relationships. (3) Demonstrate decision-making skills and responsible behaviors in personal, school, and community contexts

 

Currently, Live Vest Inside has begun connecting with local Junior High and High schools and finalizing the logistics for Social Emotional Learning (SEL) program placements in select schools in New York.
