About
As part of the Emotion Revolution, a collaboration between the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence, Facebook, and Lady Gaga's Born This Way Foundation, tens of thousands of high school students were asked how they felt in school and how they hoped to feel. The majority of students said they felt tired, stressed, and bored. However, when asked how they would like to feel, students said things like “happy,” “inspired,” and “respected”. This discrepancy between how students were actually feeling and how they wanted to feel was a call to action and the driving force behind the creation of inspirED. inspirED is a social and emotional resource designed by teens, educators and SEL experts to empower high schools to create a positive school climate and greater wellbeing for young people. Research has shown that students with more developed social and emotional skills make better decisions, experience more positive relationships, and perform better in school. This is the philosophy that forms the backbone and mission behind inspirED: to promote positive emotions among students and educators by applying the principles of social and emotional learning (SEL).
