Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This issue invites submissions for empirical research on social and emotional learning and development in educational environments, focusing on the role of COVID-19. Social and emotional learning and development are central to children’s, adolescents’, and adults’ success in educational settings. The global pandemic of 2020–2021 has altered how children, adolescents, and emerging adults are educated and socialized, with very little published work on the impact of COVID-19 on social/emotional development and learning. We invite papers that investigate and highlight the short- and long-term implications of the disruptions to education, at-home online learning, and the widening of learning gaps for children and adolescents with social/emotional/learning and other (low SES, one-parent households, etc.) needs.
