The Imperative of SEL with John and Jessica Hannigan
John & Jessica Hannigan, authors of SEL From a Distance, speak from their own experience about how important social-emotional learning (SEL) is for students, teachers, and school leaders. SEL is not something that comes to any of us naturally; the skills to take care of ourselves must be taught explicitly. The authors share how to do that from a distance (i.e. online in virtual teaching), as well as in person. Full of personal stories, you will learn in this episode:
- how to teach kids SEL explicitly
- the importance of taking care of ourselves as educators
- how to build clarity and a common understanding of SEL
