Riverside Insights and 7 Mindsets Partner to Improve Student Well-being with Lessons for SEL
Summary
Riverside Insights®, a leading developer of research-based assessments and analytics, today announced a new partnership with 7 Mindsets to offer Lessons for SEL, a cloud-based solution featuring a streaming platform of video lessons and social and emotional learning (SEL) content with specific focuses on self-awareness, social awareness, self-management, relationship skills and decision-making skills. Unlike other well-being tools, Lessons for SEL offers a complete curriculum of powerful, engaging resources and video content aligned to the CASEL framework to help educators, mental health professionals, and school leaders enhance the social emotional wellness of their students and staff. Educators can use the platform to identify relevant topics that address unique classroom needs and tailor instruction to support individual student development. These new partnerships, paired with Riverside’s industry-leading ability measure, (CogAT®), its specialized assessments for Math and Reading performance (IowaFlex, Iowa Algebra Aptitude Test (IAAT) and Gates-MacGinitie Reading Test® (GMRT)) and its tools to support progress monitoring and intervention (easyCBM and ESGI), create a comprehensive portfolio of resources to unlock every student’s potential. We applaud Riverside Insights for taking this powerful step of combining their trusted assessment tools with a platform that will support students’ social-emotional development with a robust SEL curriculum, series of video lessons, and engaging activities,” said Scott Shickler, Founder and CEO of 7 Mindsets.
