Dr. Lisa Hinshelwood: What is Social and Emotional Learning and Why is it Critical for Kids?

We grow up studying math, science, and reading. As adults, we work together in teams, for bosses, and sometimes we manage people. We sometimes marry and have children and manage complicated relationships. But we never go to class to learn the skills of communicating effectively, negotiating, and listening attentively. For something so critical to success in our careers and to our personal lives, why do we leave it up to chance? Dr. Hinshelwood explains what she teaches kids, what challenges she has, and why she does it.
