Measuring Socio-Emotional Learning Through YouthTruth Surveys
YouthTruth ascribes to the framework developed over the last 25 years at the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL), which organizes social-emotional learning (SEL) into the “big five”: Self Awareness, Self Management, Social Awareness, Relationship Skills, and Responsible Decision-Making. These domains provide a research-based framework for instruction, school-improvement efforts, and for assessing individual students’ SEL aptitude.
