The TIEL Institute offers a uniquely balanced approach to learning and teaching that addresses the requirements of 21st century education. Teaching for Intellectual and Emotional Learning (TIEL) brings together the intellectual and social emotional components of learning and teaching. The TIEL Curriculum Design Wheel represents five fundamental thinking processes needed for successful learning and five social-emotional characteristics we want students to develop.
The TIEL Institute offers individual learning support for students, educational workshops for parents, and professional development opportunities for teachers and administrators. When those involved in the education of a child understand thinking and social emotional components of learning, they are better able to meet new educational goals.
The TIEL Institute helps
Students become self-organized learners, taking more responsibility for their own learning
Parents connect more effectively with their child’s education
Teachers plan curriculum and instruction that teaches thinking and helps students develop positive social emotional characteristics
Administrators provide leadership that supports an intellectually rich and social-emotionally safe environment in which teachers can help students develop thinking processes and qualities of character to their fullest potential
