Transforming 5th to 12th Grade Education Through Evidence-Based Approaches To Character Development
Background
Under a variety of designations (virtues, life skills, soft skills, social and emotional skills, learning mindsets, developmental assets, non-cognitive factors), character strengths and skills in young people have long been considered essential for social, personal, and vocational success. Yet despite the promise of character, very few evidence-based approaches to cultivating character in 5th-12th grade students are available for broad dissemination today.
