Description & Coverage
Description:

Improving student achievement in marginalized communities requires an approach that goes beyond traditional academic strategies. In these communities, students often face multiple challenges, including economic instability, social inequality, and limited access to resources, which can impact their learning and development. One approach to addressing these challenges is through social and emotional learning (SEL), which focuses on building skills such as self-awareness, emotional regulation, and social interaction. By cultivating these abilities, SEL enhances academic performance and fosters resilience, empathy, and a sense of community among students. In environments where students may feel disconnected or overwhelmed, SEL can serve as a foundation for emotional well-being, creating a supportive atmosphere that encourages both personal growth and academic success. Further research may reveal that SEL can play a pivotal role in helping students in marginalized communities reach their full potential.

The Power of Social and Emotional Learning for Student Success explores the critical role that social and emotional learning (SEL) plays in the academic success of students, particularly those from marginalized communities such as African American students and students with disabilities. It challenges the prevailing reliance on punitive disciplinary measures like suspension, arguing that these approaches fail to address behavioral issues while contributing to widening educational inequities. This book covers topics such as mental health, community resilience, and sociology, and is a useful resource for educators, sociologists, policymakers, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
