Summary

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 69 Critical Education Theory Series, Part 6 Possibly the most important topic happening in education, at least if you care about the well-being, health, and safety of children and the future of this country, is "Social-Emotional Learning (SEL)." Social-Emotional Learning is the psychologizing of schooling, and, as one might expect, it comes in a variety of forms. The most contemporary and relevant form is the most Marxist form because the Marxist educators have completely hijacked any legitimacy the program ever had and turned it into a Maoist nightmare (https://newdiscourses.com/2021/12/groomer-schools-3-the-creation-of-an-american-red-guard/) to ruin your kids so they can achieve their revolution. In this long, detailed episode of the New Discourses Podcast, James Lindsay helps you understand the most Marxist version of SEL, Transformative SEL, by reading a full academic paper describing it and the (complete lack of) evidence for its implementation. The paper (https://bit.ly/TransSEL) appeared in Educational Psychologist in 2019, bearing the title " Transformative Social and Emotional Learning (SEL): Toward SEL in Service of Educational Equity and Excellence," and is by Robert J. Jagers, Deborah Rivas-Drake, and Brittney Williams. If you want to save our schools, you have to understand what Transformative SEL is (and the CASEL model it has colonized), and you can do that by joining James for this informative episode!

0:35.8	we're not you can come with me.
0:37.8	We're doing this gigantic kind of survey of the critical turn in education critical
0:44.0	education theory aka critical pedagogy and that's going to take a long time and we're going
0:50.5	to go through a lot of resources so you can really understand what it is but you also
0:54.4	will know if you've been paying attention to the podcast that we're taking a slight
0:57.3	diversion from the development I wanted to do originally which was to just kind of start
1:02.9	with the history and work our way forward and rather than being mirrored in kind of very
1:09.6	abstract theoretical things merely being mirrored in those I should say what we're going
1:18.5	to be doing what I'm doing right now is dipping into this kind of more contemporary
1:22.1	stuff so that you can have a point of reference so a recent episode here on the podcast

1:39.4	relevant teaching which is also CRT sometimes it's culturally responsive teaching there's
1:43.8	a scarier variant culturally sustaining teaching and so what I did in that episode recent
