  • Abstract:
  • Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) has become a central framework in global education reform, emphasizing the development of self-awareness, self-management, responsible decision-making, social skills, and emotional intelligence. While policymakers and educators increasingly recognize SEL as essential, questions remain about its long-term impact on academic success. This article examines the theoretical foundations of SEL, reviews emerging research on its enduring academic effects, and evaluates the challenges of measuring long-term outcomes. It concludes by proposing evidence-based strategies for assessing the sustained influence of SEL on learners’ academic trajectories.
