Agency with Virtual Learning: Prioritizing Children's Social Emotional Health in the Pandemic
Hauge, Chelsey
Childhood Education, v96 n6 p54-59 2020
This article describes how one organization addresses social-emotional health during the pandemic. Positive Parenthood follows a relationship-based approach to bring calm and comfort to the adult-child relationship (be it between parents and children or teachers and children). They focus on children's sovereignty and the adult's capacity to nurture the relationship in order to support children's resiliency and cooperation. They encourage parents, teachers, and other adults in children's lives to consider a child's experience of agency and social emotional well-being as they make decisions about virtual schooling and consider how they might best supplement the child's learning. In this article, Chelsey Hauge discusses Positive Parenthood in the context of relationships, screen time, and children's agency; prioritizing social-emotional health; and the power of positive relationships. Short pieces on ending social isolation with student-led programs, entrepreneurship education in Israel, and African students combatting the pandemic are also included.
