Socio-emotional learning as a base for universal prevention programs
A comprehensive mission for schools is to educate students to be responsible, socially skilled, caring, and contributing citizens overall. This mission is supported by the growing number of school-based prevention programs. Most of those programs are based in socio-emotional learning which aims the enhancement of knowledge, skills, habits and values which represent a core of childâs academic, personal and social development. Those skills are useful for school conditions and life in general: recognizing feelings and good emotion regulation, development of positive relationships with others, responsible decision making and problem solving help children to be more successful in general. Research shows that children who don't have socio-emotional skills are on higher risk for development of stabile behavioural disorders, learning difficulties and academic failure ; they have problems with connecting to peers and higher risk for substance abuse. The socio-emotional approach to school-based prevention incorporates health promotion, competence enhancement, and youth development frameworks that integrate strategies for reducing risk factors and enhancing protective mechanisms. In our talk, we will present the PATHS socio-emotional program. Promoting Alternative Thinking Strategies is a school based universal prevention program developed by Mark Greenberg and Carol Kusche. Program is being delivered within pre-school settings and in all classes of elementary schools by a teacher on a weekly base. Although program is being delivered in school settings, intention of the authors was to reinforce the generalization of activities and strategies in other contexts of life. PATHS program goal is enhancement of self-control, enhancement of emotion regulation, learning of steps for problem solving and promotion of positive values and healthy relationships with others. Research shows that PATHS is successful in reducing aggression and violence among peers, enhancing positive climate in classroom and empowering children in problem solving.
