In our most recent issue, we highlight research from the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence (YCEI) suggesting that teachers need social-emotional learning (SEL) just as much as students do. Of course, SEL is a complicated topic, one we couldn't comprehensively cover in a single article. That's why we're sharing this list of SEL resources compiled by the YCEI team.
