Abstract Details

2022, Master of Arts, Wittenberg University, Education.
The following study examined how using different Social Emotional Learning strategies in art impacts middle school students' ability to express their emotions. The participants in the study consisted of 10 seventh grade students from a large public district in Central Ohio during the 2021-2022 school year. Students completed three art projects that focused on expressing emotions using color, facial expressions, and design. My findings showed that based on the rubrics students understood how to express their emotions on their art projects because they scored highly on each rubric. When looking at the data from student reflections and surveys, it did not show a significant change over time. When looking at individual students, the results showed that the intervention positively impacted some students but did not have a significant impact on others. Due to the small number of students participating in the study and the short amount of time the study took place, further research is required to explore the effects of SEL intervention in the middle school art classroom.
