Participants will synthesize information and develop a deep understanding of how the current mental health crisis is impacting the education system in the United States and in their own schools; critique “emotional literacy” and how it is explicitly connected to teaching and learning; assess “emotional safety” and how it is explicitly connected to teaching and learning in their school; and evaluate best practices that “humane” or compassionate leaders leverage in order to create culturally inclusive learning spaces that center the humanity of all people and determine where these practices are/are not in their school.
The pre-work and post-work time has been estimated at 3 hours.
Presenter: Dr. Michael Allen
