Some schools have taken the drastic step of banning the devices altogether, but that kind of policy can be hard to implement against resistance from both students and parents. Plus, most educators currently work in schools without cellphone bans.</p> <p>This is where social-emotional learning might help: Educators can teach students the social-emotional skills they need to help break their addictive, unhealthy phone habits.</p> <p>“There is an obvious set of umbrella skills, like impulse control, and basically all of the skills that we use to stop ourselves from doing something that maybe we shouldn’t do,” said Sophie Barnes, a researcher for the Ecological Approaches to Social Emotional Learning Laboratory at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. “But I think that there are opportunities beyond that with cellphone use. In particular, I’m thinking about relationship and communication skills.”</p> <p><a href="https://www.edweek.org/leadership/can-sel-help-students-curb-their-own-cellphone-use/2024/04" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Read full article from EdWeek</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.the74million.org/article/theyre-going-to-get-a-lot-of-backlash-families-teachers-react-to-la-unifieds-looming-cell-phone-ban/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Also read: “They’re Going to Get a Lot of Backlash” – Families, Teachers React to LA Unified’s Looming Cell Phone Ban – The 74</a></p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> </div> <div data-elementor-type="footer" data-elementor-id="4111" class="elementor elementor-4111 elementor-location-footer" data-elementor-post-type="elementor_library"> <section class="elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-48fc209f elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default" data-id="48fc209f" data-element_type="section" data-settings="{"background_background":"classic"}"> <div class="elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default"> <div class="elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-387457dc" data-id="387457dc" data-element_type="column" data-settings="{"background_background":"classic"}"> <div class="elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated"> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-3aeab4a9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-theme-site-logo elementor-widget-image" data-id="3aeab4a9" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="theme-site-logo.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <a href="https://sel4ca.org"> <img fetchpriority="high" width="400" height="147" src="https://sel4ca.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2020/08/cropped-SEL4CA-logo-400px.jpg" class="attachment-full size-full wp-image-5399" alt="" srcset="https://sel4ca.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2020/08/cropped-SEL4CA-logo-400px.jpg 400w, https://sel4ca.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2020/08/cropped-SEL4CA-logo-400px-300x110.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px" /> </a> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-1dcd269d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor" data-id="1dcd269d" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="text-editor.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <p style="text-align: center;">Working for social emotional learning for all of California</p> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-8311efc elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor" data-id="8311efc" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="text-editor.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <p>The resources provided here do not constitute or imply a validation or endorsement of any particular product, service, program, or person.
