By “social-emotional learning,” I mean things like:
- Learning programming is hard, frustrating, daunting, makes you feel stupid; you need psychological tools for dealing with all that
- Programming carries all sorts of social baggage, is absurdly gendered and white in our culture, comes with all sorts of social pressures; you need to be mindful of all that or you’ll fall into the pit of it (whether you’re on the privileged or the marginalized side)
