CREST: Children’s Responses to Emotional and Social Situations

METHODS & ANALYSIS
In order to address the research questions of this study, we utilize a mixed-methods instrument development design via three stages. The three stages of research will occur side-by-side in each country, with a dual focus in each stage on children’s SEL and teachers’ wellbeing.

GOALS
* Understand how children, parents, and teachers define and prioritize SEL and teacher wellbeing, and produce context-relevant, validated assessments for each.
* Develop a data-informed process that any country or activity, but especially those in crisis- or conflict-affected contexts, can use to develop feasible, reliable, valid, context-relevant and conflict-sensitive child SEL and teacher wellbeing assessments.
