What is the difference between SEL and behavior?

Strong SEL is a prerequisite for good behavior. “Behavior-based RtI” is gaining popularity right now. The problem with “behavior-based RtI” is that it’s reactive rather than pro-active. For example, “screening” for behavior problems implies that you have already observed the behavior problem. If that is so, then students run the risk of already having maladaptive behavior habits, and identifying and remediating these issues is reactionary. The value of RtI is that it focuses on prevention. Therefore, school personnel need to screen for skill development, rather than behavior.
