Course Description

Building Empathy and Connectivity in the Classroom

Social awareness and relationship skills are two of the core competencies of Social Emotional Learning as defined by the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning as identified by CASEL.

Empathy is the glue that holds these two competencies together and allows us to connect with compassion for others through awareness of self.  Our ability to teach empathy as well as embed in in our pre-existing pedagogy is necessary for a well-rounded educational experience and vital to healthy students, schools and communities.

This experiential and interactive workshop will expose participants to the science of empathy and offer experiential tools and activities that can be used immediately with students or clients to build and practice empathy.

Learning Objectives:

  • Introduce and differentiate Empathy, Sympathy, and Compassion as well as Affective and Cognitive Empathy
  • Introduce/review the Collaborative for Social Emotional Learning (CASEL) 5 Competencies and their connection and relevance to Empathy
  • Engage and learn experientially, through activities designed to connect, build, and teach empathy.
