Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic scenario, Social Emotional Learning (SEL) - a process by which children, girls, and adults acquire emotional intelligence, develop empathy for others and learn skills to solve problems - gained strength in schools.
That happened since research had shown that students who manage their emotions have better academic performance and good social attitudes.
What impact will the pandemic have on learning and on the well-being of school communities, now and in the long term? And what social and emotional learning can become an integral part of education and human development in this scenario?
