Social Emotional Learning Resources

A quasi-experimental study by SEG Measurement confirmed the effectiveness of 7 Mindsets instruction in improving a range of student behaviors requiring school-level discipline. The study, conducted over five months, compared two groups of students: one receiving 7 Mindsets instruction and one group not receiving 7 Mindsets instruction.

Emerging evidence indicates that promoting teacher well-being and mental health reduces stress and anxiety. By addressing their own social emotional wellness first, teachers are more successful in impacting the social emotional wellness of their students and changing school cultures for the better.

Effective social emotional learning is needed in every school and district. The six outcomes discussed in this white paper highlight why schools implement social emotional learning and how positive outcomes have been realized by students, educators, and the entire school community.

Implemented in 37 states, the 7 Mindsets solution is evidence based and has been assessed for impact on student achievement, behavior, and attendance, as well as resilience, grit, and life orientation (attitude). The following is a summary of research performed on the program over the last 10 years.
