We discover a symbiotic relationship between the&nbsp;performing arts, Social Emotional Learning, and Mindful Learning over the course of six months, and&nbsp;examine the potentials and constraints of this harmonization. Results from this study show that learning in a co-constructivist setting, which allows opportunities for reflective listening, choice, intentional focus, and feedback, supports the development of behavioural and emotional abilities, and empowers students to delve deeper into their connections with nature through composing abstract music and movement pieces.</p&gt;}, number={1}, journal={LEARNing Landscapes}, author={Yanko, Matt and Yap, Priscilla}, year={2020}, month={Jun.}, pages={249-264} }
