Portfolio Part: Teaching to Trauma

What is trauma–like, really what is it? How can an accurate understanding of human trauma responses and our genius nervous systems help us take care of ourselves and our students, in practical ways? In other words, what can we do more of so that our learning spaces are sites of care, joy and–yes–even healing? Can education environments do this? YES! Can you do this? YES! This session will cover some helpful basics, then go right into fun, gentle and inclusive stuff to do that works. Let’s take some well-deserved time to get excited about how much you are capable of and how much is possible. Your whole self is welcome at this workshop, and there will be beverages. Facilitated by Professor Niki Tulk.
