Social Emotional Learning and Resilience: Essential Skills for Students with ASD
Developing social and emotional competencies is a critical and essential skill for students with ASD, but, at the same time, educators need to address their resilience. Learn about the core business in social emotional learning and resilience in the context of ASD and what educators could do to address these elements in the school environment.
Social and emotional learning (SEL) means the processes by which children acquire the knowledge, attitudes, and skills necessary to manage, interact and adapt one’s self in a range of situations. SEL is an essential skill and not everyone “gets it”. For students with ASD SEL does not come naturally, and there is a correlation between poor social skills, behaviour problems, impaired resilience, and academic achievement.
It is essential to explicitly teach SEL and use ASD-friendly strategies to help them predict the behaviours of others, be part of a group and develop friendships. In the first half of the course, participants will be introduced to the key terms of SEL, Resilience, and ASD. Participants will then complete a short quiz.
In the second half of the course, participants will be introduced to field tested strategies to address SEL and Resilience for students with ASD and useful resources available on the web.
This online course will allow participants to:
- Understand social emotional learning and resilience in the context of ASD;
- Recognise the importance of addressing SEL and resilience for students with ASD;
- Be able to address SEL and resilience using ASD friendly strategies inclusively.
