Lots of interesting research. Particularly found the concept of teaching young students science about how the brain works fascinating. I was also interested to hear about the Jan-July ‘dip’ and wonder if this is a particularly American thing or whether research shows this dip in more international settings.
Thank you for such helpful research information. Sue
What a great opportunity to learn and listen about hidden curriculum. Totally agree about the positive or negative influence we all have as a teachers.
Congratulations for all positive changes you have achieved, I could feel your excitement and energy! Awesome. Thank you !!!
Comprehensive research-based info – happy we are moving toward promoting positive outcomes rather than preventing negative ones. Looks like SEL is positively impacting both academic and social growth. Thank you.
CASEL crucial for our global change in the human developmental experience! Character education begins in every individual and children learn what they live….hidden curriculum!!!!! Mindful Communication huge! Vicarious trauma….everywhere. Love the field of epigenetics!!!
This is wonderful information and truly helps drive home the sincere need for social and emotional learning in school systems! Thank you!
