#JohnLucker is back for the second presentation- Social-emotional competence in #deafed. #deafed #SCDHHSummit #DrJohnLuckner #socialemotional
Social-emotional competence involves acquiring and effectively applying the attitudes, knowledge, and skills necessary. #deafed #SCDHHSummit #DrJohnLuckner #socialemotional
We as people don't innately know emotions..like happiness. Until it is labeled enough times. For #DHH chidlren, it is even harder and more important. #deafed #SCDHHSummit #DrJohnLuckner #socialemotional
Social-emotional: Self-awareness of emotions, self-management of yourself, social awareness (take the perspective of and empathize with others to understand social norms for behavior), and relationship skills.
Social-emotional skills are like two sides of a coin, separate but intertwined together. #deafed #SCDHHSummit #DrJohnLuckner #socialemotional
There is a high correlation between social skills and academic performance. Better social skills, better academic performance. #deafed #SCDHHSummit #DrJohnLuckner #socialemotional
Benefits of social-emotional competence--> better social relations, better family skills, better social relations at work, better psychological well-being, being resilient, better health, better job performance..... #deafed #SCDHHSummit #DrJohnLuckner #socialemotional
The lack of social-emotional skills during early childhood single best predictor of significant problems in adulthood. Lack of those cause adult depression, alcoholism, withdrawing, etc. !!! 90% of jobs are lost because of social-emotional problems!!!
Becoming socially-emotionally competent is complex- cognitive, emotional, communication and motor skills impact. #deafed #SCDHHSummit #DrJohnLuckner #socialemotional
In adolescents, in friendship skills, there is a greater degree of commitment, loyalty, acceptance, tolerance, and support...That's also when #deafed children begin to lose friendships because of the complexity of acquiring social-emotional skills. #deafed #SCDHHSummit
[An aside from @BEGINNINGSSC, we are sitting here watching and getting fired up to start social-emotional workshop(s) for parents and #dhh kids. Here's our pledge.]
Why DHH children may demonstrate delays/deficits in developing social-emotional competence: Insecure attachment, we "dummy down" our language (we use fewer emotional expressions when interacting with students, DHH kids miss cues and LOTS of lack of practice.
Assessment-compare #deafed with similar age peers. How much is he off task, how much is he engaged, does he have a true friend? #deafed #SCDHHSummit #DrJohnLuckner #socialemotional
Purpose of #socialemotional assessment: compare a student to peers, making placement decisions, identifying strengths and possible interventions, monitoring the impact of interventions. #deafed #SCDHHSummit #DrJohnLuckner #socialemotional
Important! Assessments for #socialemotional #deafed skills should be evaluated by several people--> teacher, parent, child, etc. #deafed #SCDHHSummit #DrJohnLuckner #socialemotional
Some examples of #socialemotional scales:

Social Skills Improvement Systems (SSIS)
Behavior and Emotional Rating Scale
Emotional and Behavioral Screener--This is a screener but high correlation with more intensive scales
#deafed #SCDHHSummit #DrJohnLuckner #socialemotional
We all have strange thoughts...but it's our actions and behaviors that tell us who we are. #deafed #SCDHHSummit #DrJohnLuckner #socialemotional
Promoting social-emotional competence in children and youth: What to do! #deafed #SCDHHSummit #DrJohnLuckner #socialemotional
819 articles about #socialemotional articles in 21 years. Only 21 were actually intervention studies! Of those 11, 6 were in a group, 5 were single-case. 7 studies provided explicit instruction in #socialskills...study to be published in next @JDSDE1.
The main conclusion is #deafed kids need EXPLICIT INSTRUCTION in social skills. #deafed #SCDHHSummit #DrJohnLuckner #socialemotional
#DrJohnLuckner's fave- PATHS: Promoting Alternative Thinking Strategies Program. Hmmm....(running to Amazon now..)
Another help- The Zones of Regulation with emotions labeled.
SSIS-Social Skills Improvement System
Using children's literature-->great to teach #socialemotional kids! Make the librarian your best friend! #deafed #SCDHHSummit #DrJohnLuckner #socialemotional
Parental involvement with #socialemotional skills (80% of "awake" time is at home)...good communication between parents and children positively impact #DHH kids #deafed #SCDHHSummit #DrJohnLuckner #socialemotional
Teach parents and families to use affective reflections..."You look like you are frustrated with tieing your shoe." or "You're upset that we have to clean up right now." #deafed #SCDHHSummit #DrJohnLuckner #socialemotional
