The SECD Lab is moving forward this summer with our podcast which can be found on Spotify. Currently, the podcast consists of one episode interviewing Dr. Maurice Elias, the SECD Lab director. The future episodes will include various guests from different backgrounds and careers who will be interviewed on numerous topics related to social-emotional learning. SECD On Demand will not only share some of the research done within the lab but serves to inform the audience on mental health, anti-racism, lesson planning strategies for students, and more.
SECD On Demand hopes to highlight each of our guest speakers on every episode. The second guest speaker who will be featured on the next episode is Scott Edgar, an associate professor of music at Lake Forest College and author of Music Education and Social Emotional Learning: The Heart of Teaching Music. In the upcoming episode, we will discuss the contents of this book and the importance of including music education in schools to improve students’ social and emotional learning.
SECD On Demand will continue releasing new episodes with featured guests in the SEL and SECD community. The podcast will explore topics around social-emotional learning in depth and share the work and opinions of our guests. Find us and listen on Spotify!
