Course summary

There is a broad range of evidence that suggests that students who have well developed social and emotional intelligence (or learning) are better equipped to manage the ups and downs of everyday life. Where once these skills were assumed to be learnt in the home or the community, educators now realise that these skills can, and should, be taught in schools and the Australian Curriculum incorporates this content into the Personal and Social capability.

You will learn:

  • defining social and emotional skills and why they’re important
  • the Australian Curriculum – Personal and Social capability
  • whole school approach
  • teaching strategies.

Course time:

About 30 to 45 minutes - perfect for after work or during a spare period. You will have ongoing access via your user dashboard.

Accreditation:

This course is mapped to the Professional Standards for Teachers.
