Description
Summary:In an era where the world feels increasingly interconnected yet divided, Social-Emotional Learning in English Language Teaching unveils the profound impact of incorporating social-emotional learning (SEL) into language education. With compelling narratives and relatable examples, the authors showcase how emotional intelligence, empathy and well-being are not just buzzwords, but essential elements for thriving in today's global community. Through the lens of language education, they introduce the concept of affective communicative competence and advocate for a practice of responsible well-being that aims to support the holistic well-being of educators and learners. Blending meticulously researched theory with practical applications, the book is structured to facilitate both comprehension and application through practical SEL activities or reflective questions. As a critical resource for educators, researchers and policymakers aiming to enrich the language-learning landscape, Social-Emotional Learning in English Language Teaching equips practitioners with the tools to foster environments where social-emotional and linguistic growth can flourish in tandem.
