Program

Cognitive and Social Neuroscience research has found that social-emotional skills, such as self-awareness, self-regulation and resilience, are often more important than IQ for academic and later life success. Yet, many students today lack these necessary skills. Discover strategies for boosting self-awareness, self-control, relationships and resilience so students can succeed in a standards-based, distracted, disconnected, digital age.


LEARNING OBJECTIVES
You will gain knowledge about:

  • Ways to boost student self-control and motivation
  • Teaching a Teen “Me First” Generation in the digital age
  • Strategies for social-emotional instruction and assessment
  • Promoting student self-awareness, self-regulation and efficacy
  • How to raise resilience and success in a stressful standards age
  • Applying brain and social science to improve student learning
  • Using games and technology to improve cognitive and math skills
  • Connections between self-control, social skills and achievement
  • Linking attachment, compassion and collaboration to learning
  • Impacts of digital technology on distraction, ADHD and Autism
  • Combining Common Core, Language Arts and emotions
