Abstract

Abstract: Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) is vital for K-12 students, promoting self-awareness, self-management, social skills, responsible decision-making, and relationship building. It enhances creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving abilities. However, the integration of SEL varies across countries, with developing nations encountering challenges. This study investigates SEL's impact on academic performance and personal growth, identifying barriers such as digital distractions and inconsistent implementation. A scoping review methodology was used to assess literature, with searches conducted in PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar, and Web of Science following PRISMA 2000 guidelines. Results indicate that SEL improves academic achievements, emotional regulation, and social skills, but challenges like inconsistent implementation and limited support hinder its effectiveness. Future research should focus on the long-term impacts of SEL, digital adaptation, and policy-driven strategies for broader implementation.
