We used it to set goals and create learning targets in the Tacoma Public School, and it was the basis for a lot of the social emotional goal setting gifted education plans (EPs) for Florida Virtual School (where I was later hired as a gifted coordinator, and they commented that I wouldn't need training on one of the resources they were using!) They teach it at Johns Hopkins in their education program, and many trainers refer to it in their trainings about social emotional learning and the gifted. I'm honored and excited that it has been useful.
NAGC recently updated their website and moved things around. My article was preserved online on the Thomas Fordham Institute's "The High Flyer" website at this link: A K–12 assessment for social emotional skills | The Thomas B. Fordham Institute.
However, the link in that article that goes to the actual CASES rubric doesn't work anymore. So, I wanted to post it here for anyone who is looking for it now. I think NAGC will also be providing a new link for the article soon.
Here is the link where you can access the CASES rubric:

The links at the bottom of the rubric no longer all work, but you may be able to search for them by name (most websites have changed formats since it was published years ago.) But the rubric is useful and hopefully will help you create common goals and discussion topics to help the students you work with to develop the skills they need to become more successful. (We all could work on several of these as adults too!)
Thank you for all of your wonderful support over the years, and for caring so much about the gifted children in your life.
