EDL 676 Integrated Appl of Wellness Ed

Research shows that to be successful in adult life, students must master not only core academics (literacy, numeracy, etc.) but also social emotional skills and a mindset that embodies a good citizen (Bock, 2015). Socio-emotional functioning of students, a non-academic component of schooling, is inextricably intertwined with academic functioning. Immaculata University’s approved endorsement program in Social, Emotional, and Behavioral Wellness PK-12 requires field experience of its students. The final course requires a culmination of 45 hours of field experience PK-12 (10 hours from each of the first two courses) and 25 hours integrated application of wellness with a portfolio of culminating supervisory or mentorship experiences.
