Rezensionen
"This book cogently summarizes the latest advances in research, theory, and practice for educators who promote the social, emotional, and academic learning of primary-school students. It provides practical tools and strategies that teachers, administrators, and student support staff can apply in daily instruction and programming to enhance students' optimal development and academic performance. This book is a valuable resource for teacher preparation and for professional learning communities of educators."

Roger P. Weissberg, President and CEO, Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL)

"This extraordinarily compact and valuable book integrates the best available theory, research, and practice internationally and services as an essential resource for practitioners, researchers, and policy makers. It is rare indeed that one book, in relatively few pages, can accomplish all of these goals. But Carmel Cefai has done so."

Maurice Elias, Director Rutgers Social-Emotional Learning Lab, Rutgers University, NJ, USA.

"This book breathes life and vitality into the journey for researchers, teachers, and anyone undertaking the challenge of helping young people flourish in academically and socially competent and resilient ways in this modern world."

Phillip Slee, Professor in Human Development, Flinders University, South Australia.

"This book is a fascinating read because it supports educationalists engaged in teaching, planning and curriculum development. The educationists are informed of the social and emotional processes in education as well as in the formation of socially, emotionally and academically competent and resilient students. The book adopts a comprehensive whole school approach to the teaching of SEE, integrating it into the curriculum and teaching at an individual, classroom and school level. This sitswell in our inclusive school climate. Innovatively this book includes SEE interventions with students experiencing difficulties together with an awareness of the emotional life and well-being of teachers and parents in their child's education. The use of educational checklists enhances and supports self-development of the individual within a whole school community."

Charmaine Agius Ferrante, Malta Review of Educational Research, Vol 8, Issue 1, 2014

"The book's topic - social and emotional education (SEE) - will not be new to readers. The book seeks to demonstrate that the proposed practice is firmly based on well-established theory. The book offers a number of strategies, frameworks, and assessment methods which provide a possible curriculum for SEE. They are based on a range of theories and methods that are used with success across several countries. These methods are acknowledged and evidence is given from work carried out. The presentation and style used makes the book accessible to those working in the field."

Joan Pritchard, Emotional and Behavioral Difficulties, Vol 20, Issue 2, 2014

"Increasing importance is being given by psychologists and educators to the promotion of what has been termed as Social Emotional Learning or Emotional Literacy, or as Cefai and Cavioni calls it, Social and Emotional Education (SEE). Cefai and Cavioni's book is a most useful gift for educators who would like to get to grips with this new important area of education. This book should be in the hands of every primary school teacher and head of school. This book is the best tool for accessing current expertise on the education of the 'heart' in the most compact way."

Paul A. Bartolo, The International Journal of Emotional Eduation, Vol 6, Issue 1, 2014
