The Indiana Department of Education (IDOE) partnered with Butler University, CASEL, and a group of stakeholders to develop the PK-12 Social- Emotional Learning Competencies and indicators for Indiana. IDOE realized that the SEL competencies could be more explicit about how SEL can advance educational equity. Social justice concerns and recent human rights movements (BLM, Me Too, etc.) have made educators more aware that effective social and emotional learning requires difficult conversations about equity and systemic injustice. IDOE partnered with Region 8, CASEL, and CISELS to bring together a group of stakeholders to examine and review the current PK-12 IDOE SEL competencies and indicators from an educational equity and culturally responsive lens to ensure they are explicit about how SEL can advance educational equity in social and emotional learning. This stakeholder group was put together to center the voices of content experts and community members to provide suggestions for revisions of competencies and indicators to reflect a greater focus on educational equity and culturally responsiveness.  This presentation will review the SEL updates and the process used to create those updates.
