For example, creativity was more closely connected with math progress than art progress for teenagers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many of us in the education space who have worked in schools or systems where SEL is prioritized can typically speak to the benefits of fostering SEL competency building in students (and adults).\u00a0 There is no downside to ensuring our students can problem solve, manage conflicts with their peers, work in groups, show empathy, learn good work habits, and develop healthy relationships.\u00a0 We know these and similar skills are necessary to meet the demands of rigorous curriculum and an increasingly complex and diverse society.\u00a0 Want to do your best in school and beyond? You really need the range of SEL competencies to help guide and support you in school, work, and life.\u00a0 Aspen SEAD finalized a seminal 2019 report <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/nationathope.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nation at Hope<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and experts across many fields of study all came to the same basic conclusion as OECD.\u00a0 Social Emotional Learning, or rather, Social Emotional Academic Development is a necessity and not a luxury schools or can shelve.\u00a0 Especially now as students are back in school and still dealing with so much in their daily lives on a local, national, even global level.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\"
