The International Assessment Frameworks and Localization Thinking of Students'Social and Emotional Skills
Social and emotional skills,as the"soft skill"beyond cognitive ability,plays a crucial role in promoting students'academic achievement,physical and mental health,career success,and life happiness.The classic evaluation frameworks for social and emotional skills include the Big Five Model,SSES framework,CASEL wheel model,and development context framework,etc.These theories construct evaluation indicators and impact mechanisms for social and emotional skills from different perspectives.To construct a localized framework for assessing social and emotional skills in China,researchers should pay attention to the following aspects.Firstly,the evaluation scale should consider traditional Chinese culture and local educational contexts.Secondly,the ability system should reflect stages,and respects the physical and mental characteristics and development laws of different stages.Thirdly,the structure of skills should shift from structural orientation to systematic orientation.Finally,the indicators should closely integrate national policies to promote the localization of framework design.
