Episode Two: A Key Ingredient to School Transformation and Success AIR’s Kim Kendziora talks with Melissa Schlinger of the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL), lead partner in an eight-district demonstration program that aims to establish whether and how large urban school districts can make social and emotional learning a systemic support of their work. AIR has been evaluating this initiative since its inception. The results provide insight on how SEL can be a key ingredient to school transformation and success.
