In this report, RAND researchers describe the Partnerships for Social and Emotional Learning Initiative--which is an effort to explore whether and how children benefit when schools and out-of-school time programs partner to improve and align social and emotional learning--as well as what it takes to do this work. The researchers report findings and early lessons from the first two years of implementation in the six participating communities.

Media literacy (ML) education has emerged as a promising approach to slow Truth Decay, described as the diminishing role of facts, data, and analysis in political and civil discourse. However, teachers report a lack of guidance about implementing ML education, and rigorous research about what kinds of ML education work best remains limited. To address these gaps, this report presents a framework for implementing and evaluating ML educational efforts.

This report offers practical guidance for out-of-school-time programs and out-of-school-time intermediaries that wish to incorporate social and emotional learning activities into their programming for youth. The lessons are derived from the RAND Corporation's study over four years of more than 100 afterschool programs across six communities participating in The Wallace Foundation's Partnerships for Social and Emotional Learning Initiative.
