Trauma and Learning

Presenter: Allison Hrovat

Material from this two-part workshop describes how the brain responds instinctively to harm in a way that negatively impacts learning. This is especially true for adult learners, many of whom have had lifelong exposure to complex trauma. Material includes tools that can be easily implemented in the classroom.
