In this globalised, knowledge-based economy where change is the only constant, teachers need to be effective and reflective thinkers, and learners need to be flexible, resilient, adaptive and self-regulated in order to keep up with constant changes. Besides teaching and empowering students to be independent and self-regulated learners, this book is aimed at assisting teachers to understand the processes involved in infusing metacognition through social-emotional learning (SEL) as well as providing various lessons that teachers may wish to use in class. Teachers are free to modify these lessons to suit their students’ needs. It is hoped that students will inculcate the five core SEL competencies such as self-awareness, self-control, relationship management, social awareness and responsible decision-making, and develop their character and values in life from these lessons.

Benefits:

• Focuses on five SEL core competencies, processes and strategies for enhancing social-emotional learning
  
• Provides lesson plans in various subject areas such as English, Science and Social Studies for primary and secondary schools
  
• Contributors include academics and pre-service teachers in the National Institute of Education (NIE) and inservice teachers and professionals in Singapore, Indonesia and South Africa.
