1. PSELI and Data What is social-emotional learning data?
SEL data include measures of students’ social-emotional strengths, challenges, and skills -- as well as adults’ social- emotional competencies and practices.
How can we use the data?
Each year’s data informs the next year’s planning.
We can explore patterns in order to improve practice.
Keep in mind: Data can be used at different levels depending on the goals of who is using the data, such as:
SEL leadership teams looking at school level or grade level (i.e., average SELWeb for a grade)
Teachers or OST instructors looking at student level (i.e., individual student HSA portraits)
What questions can we explore?
Which social-emotional skills are most difficult right now for our students?
What do our students feel are their social-emotional strengths and challenges?
What do our teachers think about their social-emotional practices and areas for growth?
Other questions you wonder about your school…
