In the report ‘New Vision for Education: Fostering Social and Emotional Learning through Technology', the World Economic Forum explores how "character qualities" such as collaboration, communication and critical thinking will equip students to succeed in the swiftly evolving digital economy.

To thrive in the 21st century, students need more than traditional academic learning. They must be adept at collaboration, communication and problem-solving, which are some of the skills developed through social and emotional learning (SEL).

In 2015, the World Economic Forum (WEF) published the report New Vision for Education: Unlocking the Potential of Technology that focused on the pressing issue of the 21st-century skills gap and ways to address it through technology. In that report, WEF defined a set of 16 crucial proficiencies for education. Of those skills, 10 were labelled either “competencies” or “character qualities”. Competencies are the means by which students approach complex challenges; they include collaboration, communication and critical thinking and problem-solving. Character qualities are the ways in which students approach their changing environment; they include curiosity, adaptability and social and cultural awareness.

Mindfulness supports social-emotional learning (SEL),

This article defines mindfulness and provides quick summaries of 6 research studies that found a range of k-12 students benefited from mindfulness activities, weeks after the research study ended.

Plus, the article highlights six different activities you can use with your students: http://cft.vanderbilt.edu/guides-sub-pages/contemplative-pedagogy/

From the article:  "We now know that neuroplasticity allows us to make profound changes in the way  our bodies and minds function at any age. So helping students learn to train  their bodies and minds through the use of mindful awareness practices can make a  real and lasting difference."  Some interesting points raised (and how would things be different if we all paused 2 seconds to think before responding to someone?)
