CASEL's framework

CASEL's framework, developed by the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning, focuses on integrating social and emotional learning (SEL) in education. It identifies five core competencies: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making. These competencies help individuals understand and manage their emotions, build positive relationships, and make informed choices. By promoting SEL in schools, CASEL aims to improve academic outcomes and foster a healthier, more supportive educational environment, ultimately preparing students to thrive in their personal and professional lives.
