The game changing Heedios® from Magical 7 Studios, based on real-life scenarios for school students, are focused on creating awareness of life skills, and support evidence-based assessment of SEL competencies.
We provide experiences to support children to develop response strategies that are emotionally and socially resilient.
We have recreated real-life scenarios with fantastic animation in a school setting to simulate social and emotional learning experiences and build SEL pathways for learners.
We have developed the SEL, based on guidelines and recommendations from industry-relevant organizations – WHO, UNESCO, and developed a framework with caselets and puzzles to assess SEL competencies as recommended by CASEL.
This team of 7 characters led by Kapi and Tiga take you through a series of real-life scenarios in Auzonia
Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) is defined in the industry as the process of acquiring the competencies, skills/attitudes to recognize and manage emotions, develop care and concern for others, establish positive relations, make responsible decisions, and handle challenging situations.
Early childhood and adolescence constitute periods of maximal sensitivity of the brain to experience & create situations of learning & environment. Enriched social environments and social interactions have a positive effect on brain maturation as well as on cognitive, social, and emotional development at all ages.
A growing body of scientific research indicates that students’ social and emotional competence not only predicts their school success but also predicts a range of important outcomes in late adolescence and adulthood, including high school graduation, postsecondary completion, employment, financial stability, physical health, and overall mental health and well-being. (Diamond, 2014).

The types of skills required to care for and advocate for oneself and others — self-regulation, responsibility, empathy, and discipline, are becoming increasingly central to the work of schools and teachers and increasingly relevant to students' lifelong success.
Learning is facilitated or hindered by the learner's social and emotional experiences, which help guide attention during learning, assist in information encoding and retrieval from memory, and effectively manage the social interactions and relationships that are fundamental to the learning process.

Education must pursue a grander goal; an education for human flourishing. Such an education will ideally give equal weightage to knowledge acquisition and use and pay attention to developing pro-social aptitudes to allow the individual to lead a life they have reason to value and cherish.
Higher order social- psychological phenomena (e.g., self-control at the individual level, and empathy, altruism and compassion at the inter-individual level) is the result of a collection of skills hinging on interactions between multiple neurological networks that involve multiple areas of the brain.
@ Magical 7 we are constantly producing quality SEL content in exciting bite-sized forms for learners….
