The activities are drawn from the work of the authors and a diverse group of educator contributors to provide engaging, insightful and culturally responsive learning opportunities appropriate for traditional or online\/blended learning environments.\n\nThe book: Highlights a diverse array of educators, innovators and design-thinkers who share their insights on SEL, STEAM and creativity. Offers an accessible and fun approach to teaching SEL, which is critical to education and human development. Guides teachers in implementing the following ISTE Standards for Students: Creative Communicator, Innovative Designer and Knowledge Constructor.\nThis book invites teachers to consider a variety of formats — print and digital, audio, video games and more — and shows how helping students become creators and design-thinkers can foster SEL.\n\nAudience: K-12 educators\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 156484949X\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.156484949X.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Haiken, Michele|Gura, Mark\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
