Abstract
This chapter describes an online professional learning series (OPLS) focused on supporting educators in designing P-12 online social-emotional learning (o-SEL) environments. The authors argue there is a need for o-SEL professional learning, which can serve as an ongoing, flexible resource educators can reference as they design their online learning environments (i.e., online classrooms). To participate fully in this OPLS, P-12 educators are situated to participate in professional exercises, guided by design thinking, to identify problems and possible solutions specifically related to their individual online learning environments. Through this process, educators draw upon the content, resources, and online teaching strategies to brainstorm practical solutions to better serve their learners' needs in online learning environments. To earn credit for completing the professional learning modules, educators submit solutions for peer review and professional evaluation. Upon receipt of the feedback, they may revise and resubmit, if needed, to demonstrate their new skills and competencies.
