On November 10, we were lucky enough to be joined by Dr. Maurice Elias, who is currently a Professor of Psychology at Rutgers University and the Director of the Rutgers Social-Emotional and Character Development Lab. He is a highly accomplished researcher in SEL and character education who has made influential contributions to his field, both in the academic community and as a writer for the general public.
As someone who has a deep and nuanced understanding of SEL and what it’s capable of accomplishing, Dr. Elias had a lot to share about how educators can use it not just for teaching long-lasting and rewarding competencies, but also for improving behavior in the moment and enhancing the learning process altogether.
As a Professor of Psychology at Rutgers University and Director of the Rutgers Social-Emotional and Character Development Lab, Dr. Maurice Elias is a leading figure in the research and implementation of SEL. His work is centered around developing and advocating for effective and equitable systems that help kids lead positive, productive lives.
