Social and Emotional Learning in Early Childhood Education
Presenter: Dr Lori Cooper
One of the many goals of an early education teacher is to foster a sense of safety for their young learners. Children need to feel safe in order for learning to be more meaningful. But how do we do this well? Creating safe spaces to learn can include examining the physical safety, emotional safety, and safety for how children grow socially. Join us as Dr. Lori Cooper, from Wilkes University, shares insight from her research where she examined how social-emotional learning impacts how a teacher leads the classroom.
