What this trial studies

This multicenter observational study compares a class that uses the Earth of Joy educational kit to classes that continue with standard lessons. Involving 58 classes and volunteer teachers who have not used Earth of Joy before, the study randomizes classes to receive the new program or not. Assessments are collected before and after the intervention using self-reported questionnaires completed by children. The trial focuses on school well-being, empathy, and related climate factors within the classroom. Results will indicate whether Earth of Joy can positively affect students’ classroom experience.
