Morphology

socioeducational = educational (semi-transparent) = socio + educational

The adjective 'educational' is clear, but the prefix 'socio-' is a specialized combining form meaning 'social' that may be unfamiliar to average learners, so the combined meaning is only partially transparent.

Etymology

Socioeducational joins the part socio- meaning 'social' or 'community', like in social, and educational from 'educate', like in education, meaning 'to teach or learn'. So, it describes things that come from both people's social life and their schooling.
