Transformative Social Emotional Learning in the Arts
As arts educators prepare to make instructional choices that will support the social and emotional needs of students, it will be paramount that they invoke the philosophical foundation, common language, essential questions, and enduring understandings articulated throughout the Arts Education and Social and Emotional Learning Framework. SEL is not a box to be checked or another item for educators to squeeze into instructional time with students. When done well, transformative SEL through arts education bears the indicators of great teaching. For SEL to be effective in teaching students the life skills needed to navigate their world after they leave the arts classroom, it must be embedded into curricular content as embodied by dance, music, theatre and visual art.
