Student Athletic Programs & SEL: Best Practices for Winning on the Field and in Life (Course 1)

Participants will know and understand the profound short-term and long-range impact that the interscholastic sports experience has on the happiness, well-being, career readiness, and growth of students through the social-emotional, cognitive, and physical learning domains. Participants will critique and identify core beliefs for their school’s athletic programs focused on learning domains through a collaborative, community-based organic process; determine desired athletic experience outcomes linked to the athletic program’s core values; analyze a data collection instrument to determine the level of success in meeting the desired athletic experience outcomes; and synthesize student survey data to be used as a foundation to establish “best practices” to ensure positive social-emotional growth outcomes for all student-athletes.
