Abstract
"The scholarly focus of this doctoral experiential (DEx) project was to create a program curriculum, based on the social-emotional learning (SEL) needs of Glickman elementary students and their current SEL curriculum, which utilizes video games to teach and promote SEL skills. This was done with 3rd-grade students at Glickman Elementary School in Springfield Massachusetts, working with one classroom specifically. The purpose of this DEx project was to expand on the SEL curriculum, providing a new, fun, and motivating way to engage students during an out-of-school program."
