Students must rely on one another in this classroom setting, and in this way they become valuable resources to each other. No student can succeed unless the students are able to work together, and this builds crucial relationships and teaches the students how to form connections with others. ]]> 2021-09-28 16:46:53 UTC https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775324262 Biography Perspective Taking gml5cdg https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775325102 Perspective taking through biographies is a great way for students to put themselves in another person's shoes and imagine what they may be feeling given a certain situation. By having students chose a historical figure to represent and convey the experiences of the chosen person, these students become immersed in perspectives besides their own.]]> 2021-09-28 16:47:07 UTC https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775325102 Journal Writing gml5cdg https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775325577 Students who engage in journal writing are able to learn social awareness by first becoming aware of their own, personal emotions. Only then can these students accurately begin to understand how others are feeling. Journal writing builds emotional intelligence necessary for students to build relationships. 

Journal writing also allows for students to reflect on the school environment and how they are feeling about their peers. Giving the students time to reflect on their experiences with other peers, they can become more self aware about their social awareness and how they are interacting with those around them. ]]> 2021-09-28 16:47:17 UTC https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775325577 Improved Classroom Climate https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775345413 Students will have higher quality student-teacher relationships, be better adaptive to change, have stronger empathy, and greater feelings of support within their school environment.]]> 2021-09-28 16:53:47 UTC https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775345413 Better Relationships https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775347427 With the implementation of this toolkit, students will be able to demonstrate constructive communication leading to improved conflict resolution and relationships. They can use peer learning and better understand how to use social support. ]]> 2021-09-28 16:54:20 UTC https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775347427 Fewer Risky Behaviors https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775369630 Along with these other outcomes, students will be less likely to engage in risk behaviors or be prone to emotional distress because they can adapt well to their new environments (e.g. using support resources).]]> 2021-09-28 17:01:40 UTC https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775369630 Greater Career Success https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775383754 "An employer survey showed that four out of five most important skills for high school graduates entering the workforce are linked to social awareness: professionalism, collaboration, communication, and social responsibility" (Transforming Education, 2020).]]> 2021-09-28 17:06:32 UTC https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775383754 Overview... gml5cdg https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775447140 There are a couple different activities that actively promote social awareness and allow students to develop this SEL competency by discussing and learning with peers, along with personally reflecting on their own emotions. Students can also "put themselves in others' shoes" to work on social awareness and processing how others feel. ]]> 2021-09-28 17:28:25 UTC https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775447140 Assessment of Journal Writing https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775549971  Journal writing acts as an open-ended self-report survey questionnaire and rating scale for students to reflect on the ways the project or activity allowed them to develop social awareness and build relationships with their peers. It also provides students an opportunity to reflect individually on whether they were able to reach their goals and what aspects of the project that they struggled or excelled with. ]]> 2021-09-28 18:03:13 UTC https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775549971 Assessment of Biography Perspective Taking https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775551236 A performance-based assessment may be one of the most effective ways to measure the extent of social awareness with the biography perspective taking activity. Students may be evaluated based on their ability to change and adapt their perspective in order to mirror the views and beliefs of those they are researching. ]]> 2021-09-28 18:03:41 UTC https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775551236 Assessment of Jigsaw Classroom https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775552371 Observation protocols and rating scales may be a beneficial way to evaluate the effectiveness of the Jigsaw classroom activity in terms of social awareness and relationship skills. Observers can evaluate the extent to which the students interact with their peers in order to gain and expand these skills by collaborating and working with others of diverse backgrounds and life experiences.  

Self-report survey questionnaires at the conclusion of the project may be beneficial in order to evaluate the extent to which the student felt they were able to interact and build connections with their fellow students, as well as the perceived effectiveness at developing a more socially aware mindset. ]]> 2021-09-28 18:04:06 UTC https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775552371 Overview https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775554130 The Social Awareness Toolkit has a variety of activities that work to address different ways of achieving social awareness and relationship building growth within a school community. Each activity works to develop these skills in a variety of ways, thus multiple assessment techniques are necessary in order to determine the effectiveness of the activity. ]]> 2021-09-28 18:04:42 UTC https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775554130 https://padlet.com/gml5cdg/mqdfxkmf0v10wf7g/wish/1775566989 Social Awareness Toolkit.
