Krachman, Sara Bartolino; Larocca, Bob
Transforming Education
TransformEd [Transforming Education] conducted a nationally representative survey of teachers, principals, and district leaders to ascertain the amount of time spent in classrooms on social-emotional learning (SEL), the amount of money spent on products and resources related to SEL, and the motivations of various stakeholders for investing in students' social-emotional skills. We found that, as a nation, schools are devoting a total of approximately $21-47 billion per year to SEL in terms of: (1) expenditure on SEL-related products and programs and (2) teacher time focused on SEL.
