SOCIO-EMOTIONAL LEARNING

At Alpha Leadership Academy Inc., our socio-emotional curriculum hones in on areas such as:

  1. Understanding and managing emotions through self-awareness, and self-management.
  2. Goal setting
  3. Social awareness
  4. Relationship skills
  5. Responsible decision making

Socio-emotional development is a very important domain in human development starting in childhood. It is a process which influences the capacity to understand, express and manage emotions, develop and maintain positive relationships, and make responsible decisions.

Socio-emotional learning which results in positive socio-emotional development is the foundation for healthy self-esteem and emotional well-being. These traits lend themselves to the long-term effect of producing stable youths who become successful adults building stronger and better communities.

Leadership

“Leadership is the ability to transform leaders that are able to transform other leaders.” Windsor Nelson, 2019.

At Alpha Leadership Academy Inc., because we believe that the Leader has the ability to influence and transform the life of others, we dedicate time to train our youths to become positive transformational leaders.

Our Leadership curriculum focuses on:

  1. The definition of Leadership
  2. Qualities of Leadership
  3. Leadership styles
  4. Responsibilities of Leadership
  5. Leadership in the community context

  8. The Power of One

Our instructional practices support our youths in thinking critically about their leadership styles, stimulate, develop, and deepen their strengths while reflecting on the purpose of leadership in their lives and in their communities.

Through effective group processes, we provoke the development of interpersonal skills which include active listening, debate and compromise, decision making, and facilitation. All of which are characteristics of great leaders.

Technology

Learning today is about teamwork, collaboration, critical thinking, socio-emotional skills, communication, and effective leadership. In the Technology class, these traits all come together – they are all employed and put to the test.

Modern technology has affected and influenced every area of our lives – physically, medically, financially, and emotionally. When one thinks of technology today, one thinks of a way of life. Technology helps turn the wheel of life. It speeds and enhances our lives for the better.
