OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Social-emotional skills, the skills about managing relationships, emotions, and tasks, have been highlighted in the research and practices. Given its broad scope, multiple frameworks and indicators have been proposed, causing inconsistency in findings. In this talk, I will introduce a series of studies we conducted in order to find out the key social-emotional skills for students’ learning and wellbeing. Throughout those studies, we have used relative weights analysis, dominance analysis, machine learning approaches, cross-cultural/county comparisons, with OECD social-emotional skill survey data. The findings suggested that persistence, curiosity, self-control tends to be the most important skill for achievement, whereas optimism, energy, stress resistance for wellbeing. The implications of the findings (e.g., targeted intervention) and our future directions will be discussed, particularly on utilizing the power of Generative Artificial Intelligence tools.
