Each of the modules also includes practical reflections on how these concepts can be applied directly in the classroom, promoting a dynamic learning environment, where the student is the center of the educational process.
Socio-emotional skills, such as self-awareness, empathy and resilience, are designed to ensure comprehensive training for both educators and students.
This set of pedagogical strategies, as described by the MEC, aims not only at academic development, but also at personal training of students.
Extracurricular activities, debates and educational technologies are some of the tools that help in this process, creating a more inclusive and participatory scenario.
