Employers are seeking new hires with social and emotional intelligence, critical thinking, teamwork, and social skills. To help foster these skills, many organizations have implemented learning activities and work-based programs, but few have evaluated their success. Assessing Competencies for Social and Emotional Learning addresses this issue by offering a systematic approach to the assessment of social and emotional learning (SEL) competencies and contextual factors. The book integrates the latest advancements in personality and attitude assessment, fairness, reliability, and validity to create a comprehensive and thorough approach to SEL assessment. This book equips education professionals with the knowledge and tools to develop and evaluate measures of social and emotional competencies and assess their impact on student attitudes, behaviors, and academic performance.
