Episode 97: Using Creativity to Drive SEL
Laura and Matt GrundlerDr. Jaime Dombrowski
Creativity and Social Emotional Learning (SEL) go hand in hand. Art has been used to convey messages, themes, ideas, and emotions throughout history—even crossing language barriers. But it isn’t always clear how we can hardwire it into our lessons. In this episode, The Creativity Department is joined by Dr. Jaime Dombrowski to talk about that exact topic. Author of Power Up: Gamification Tools for Social and Emotional Learning, Dr. Dombrowski discusses using art to promote inclusivity and emotional well-being. Listen in for expert experience on how students can use art to promote empathy, communicate who they are and what they value, and build meaningful relationships.
