Published: July 2022

Scale-up of universal social-emotional learning (SEL) programs has become a priority in schools to promote positive social outcomes for all students. Although studies have examined student outcomes associated with school-based SEL when extensive training and support are provided, research on teacher SEL implementation practices under typical conditions has received far less attention. As such, this study examined the first-year universal SEL implementation practices of 41 teachers across 13 schools in three states. School personnel made all decisions regarding approaches to training, support, and program implementation of a manualized program delivered at the classroom level to first- and second-grade students. Within this authentic context for implementation, variability was observed in selection of skills units, number of lessons taught, and adherence to lesson activities and scripts. Coding of teacher anecdotal reports revealed that perceived student needs, classroom context demands, and school-level factors informed teachers' implementation of the program.

Background: In the 21st century, disasters (particularly earthquakes, which remain the leading cause of death) continue to be among the foremost issues requiring global emergency response. While the impact of advancing technologies on the environmental and human damage caused by earthquakes is still a subject of debate, search and rescue (SAR) teams and emergency departments (ED), specifically emergency physicians (EPs), play a crucial role in the most acute management of the effects of these earthquakes on human life. This study aims to examine the injury dynamics of two catastrophic earthquakes that occurred in Turkey 24 years apart from the perspective of EPs, utilizing archival records from the SAR teams in which EPs served.
