Description There is a missing piece in teacher education. Many preservice programs lack the formal, focused coursework necessary to provide adequate social-emotional learning for teacher candidates. Educators are entering the classroom without the social-emotional competencies required to sustain their mental health or promote prosocial skills within their students. The purpose of this project was to design a social-emotional learning (SEL) curriculum that could be used in preservice teacher education programs to bolster teacher candidates' social-emotional competencies and prepare them to teach SEL in their classrooms. The curriculum is intended to introduce Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL) core competencies to student educators. The curriculum blends in-person classes with online modules allowing for flexibility and additional support. The course was evaluated by two experts from Weber State University's College of Education. Evaluators provided feedback on the course's relevancy, content, and course structure. The implications of this project support the implementation of SEL curriculum into teacher education programs.
