The Social-Emotional Learning Upgrade explores how today’s
educators can connect two previously separated but important
curricula in their schools: social-emotional learning and
educational technology. With schools’ SEL efforts pressed for
time and resources and digital engagements often limited to skill
development, K-12 students risk being unprepared to sustain their
well-being and personal opportunities in a rapidly changing,
technology-dependent world. Driven by a paradigm that synthesizes
multicultural education and humanistic psychology, this book
readies educators to implement SEL curricula that will support
young learners as they navigate constant social and technological
flux while nurturing their unique perceptions of reality, their
aspirations, and their mental and physical health. Each chapter’s
novel insights will help to mitigate both student disengagement and
teacher demoralization, enabling classroom pedagogies and the
process of schooling to better align with the ways in which
learners explore, express, and create meaning. Guiding pre-service
teachers, leaders, and curriculum developers beyond common goals
such as digital skills development, content mastery, or
standardized testing, this volume focuses instead on complex
digital literacies, collaborative experiences, problem- and
project-based learning, culturally relevant pedagogies, and overall
holistic growth.
