Abstract:
Transitions happen in every stages of life. From being an infant to an adult, people experience changes in every aspect of their personality. One of these changes is when an individual is facing the transition of his socio-emotional development which includes self-awareness, social awareness, self-management, relationship management, and responsible decision-making. Moreover, socio-emotional development is an important precursor for successful adjustment at school and for academic achievement and as well as for building and maintaining positive relationships with peers and teachers. Thus, social and emotional abilities can be considered as indicators of how well an individual adjusts to their environment, adapts to changes and, how successful he or she will be in school. Sing adolescents entering college are going through a major transition, it’s understandable that social and emotional problems are common on college campuses. College can be an overwhelming place, especially for students’ just starting college. The shift to a new life at school can trigger socio-emotional challenges. The researchers aim to gather an empirical data on the level of socio-emotinal competencies of incoming freshmen students of Lipa City Colleges in terms of self-awareness, social awareness, self-management, relationship management, and responsible decision-making. Since no curriculum is developed integrating socio-emotional development in the institution, it is timely to conduct this study as a basis for proposed curriculum in the near future. Likewise, the study might be a way to improve and help students facing the challenges of their transition stage.
