Course Description
Trauma impacts a person’s ability to learn. It changes brain development and often results in students living in their fear brain, which turns off their thinking brain and impairs the ability to hear, learn, and understand. And if that wasn’t hard enough, trauma can also make it more difficult for students to trust authority or build healthy relationships in or out of the classroom. This course helps you more thoroughly understand how overwhelming behaviors and emotions may be tied to past traumas and gives you classroom strategies to better connect with and care for students who come from a history of trauma or chronic stress so that they have the greatest chance at succeeding in the school environment.
