The Class Director Teacher Project (PPDT) as a tool for social-emotional development

Abstract

Students' social-emotional development is a crucial component of holistic education. The Class Director Teacher Project (PPDT) is a pedagogical strategy whose main objective is to promote the socio-emotional development of students, contributing to their integral formation. PPDT is an educational program that aims to promote not only academic learning but also students' personal and social growth. The project involves the designation of a teacher as a class director, responsible for monitoring the academic, social, and emotional development of a specific group of students. This article examines the importance of PPDT as an effective tool for the enhancement and development of students' social-emotional skills, highlighting the advantages and challenges faced in its implementation. To support the analysis, citations and references of relevant studies in the area of education and socio-emotional development are presented.
