Social/Emotional Learning Resources
As you know, in 2004 the Illinois State
Board of Education adopted standards in social and emotional
learning (SEL).
Drafting of the 10 SEL standards, along with goals, age-appropriate
benchmarks, and performance descriptors, was a collaborative
effort between ISBE and the Illinois Children’s Mental
Health Partnership with technical support from the Collaborative
for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL). ISBE
is now focusing on helping educators across the State provide
high-quality education in SEL to their students. Those interested
in this work often ask a range of questions about SEL and
the new standards. Below is a link to answers to these FAQs
by way of orientation to this work.
