Save The Music Foundation will provide teachers with access to a new professional development program specifically geared towards teaching music educators how to embed social emotional learning (SEL) in the classroom. Through a partnership with the Center for Arts Education and Social Emotional Learning (ArtsEdSEL), the program – STUDENT EMPOWERMENT THROUGH SEL IN MUSIC EDUCATION – will offer nine, monthly webinars from September 2021 to May 2022.
This series will help music educators better understand how to elevate the lived experience, voices, and cultural assets of their students through the development of exemplary music education practices and approaches, designed to activate the SEL competencies of self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making through the artistic processes of create, perform, respond, and connect.
The webinars are free to attend and tailored for music educators. Webinars are also relevant for student musicians, parents and families, as well as music education advocates. All those interested in social emotional learning in music education are welcome to join. The full series calendar can be found below. Registration is required to attend each webinar.
