AVAILABLE NOW
Whether in-person or remote, Prosocial processes are scale independent, and can be implemented within classrooms, projects, teacher or administrative teams, and school-community partnerships.
Social and Emotional Health
The physical and social-emotional health of everyone across the school community is critical to support and evaluate.
Prosocial incorporates contextual behavioral science (CBS) which provides evidence-informed practices for all ages and all levels of need. The following resources are applicable for children, teens and adults, and easy to learn.
Adaptive Capacity
Nobody, no matter their educational expertise, has the experience to ensure a fail-safe plan for the 2020-21 school year.
As school improvement specialist David Sherer has argued, it is not about choosing "the right model", it is about ensuring your school has the right systems in place to improve and adapt.
Networked Improvement Communities
The NIC model for school improvement builds on the latest insights for the spread of evidence-informed social innovation. This approach supports leadership from every chair to:
1. Clarify individual and group improvement aims;
2. Increase the capacity to ideate, share, and evolve solutions to complex improvement barriers;
3. Help groups stay focused on coordination around targeted goals, with an emphasis on cooperation within and between schools.
Youth Corps
We are seeking students who are passionate about evolving a better future through social change projects at the intersection of educational improvement, just culture, and regenerative economics.
Apply now or nominate a young person today to join an international team of peers, researchers and educators working together on evolutionary problem solving.
Prosocial Institute
Our tools elevate existing group members, at any age. Key stakeholders receive Prosocial for Practitioners training that we sponsor, designed by Prosocial Institute.
For groups looking to nurture embedded leadership, you may consider Prosocial for Facilitators training for select group members.
