Laura and Matt GrundlerJonathan Juravich
Yes, there are many Social Emotional Learning (SEL) moments in art classrooms students experience as part of sharing space and because art is about feeling. However, “for true SEL learning to take place, there needs to be intentionality. Educators must think through how they build specific experiences for students that include SEL.” But how? Maybe you’ve had trouble incorporating it in your art room. 2018 Ohio Teacher of the Year, Jonathan Juravich is here to help! In this episode, the Creativity Department discusses Jonathan’s dissertation on SEL in art education, his TED Talk about teaching empathy, his work as a national Arts advocate, and his experience with SEL and elementary students. Dive in to learn more and come away with a plethora of resources.
