      How can a child succeed in a school setting when they don't know how to ask for help when they really need it? Their trauma sets them up for failure because they have to be so self reliant at home
  • One of the challenges in giving that support is that when kids misbehave, our schools often use disciplinary systems that involve withdrawing attention and support, rather than addressing their problems

    The International Rescue Committee (IRC) and Sesame Workshop (the organization behind Sesame Street) are teaming up to give millions of refugee children in Iraq, Lebanon, Jordan, and Syria support to learn and grow. They are combining Sesame Street's history of educational content with IRC's history of assisting crisis-affected areas to deliver learning opportunities tailored to the needs of the children and caregivers.

    This article criticizes the concept of political correctness preventing higher thinking in academia. The author is a survivor of rape and discusses how using trigger warnings can be helpful in a classroom setting and does not minimize the learning experience. The author provides an anecdote, as well as an example of a 'get to know you' worksheet she uses at the University she teaches at.

    I really like the use of "trigger words" in education. I don't think it matters if it is used in college or in K12. The whole point is to alert you to a possible trauma causing conversation or topic that could come up in class that could make someone uncomfortable. Unfortunately there are so many triggers in the world today that you could never call out all of them. The teacher made reference to an apple. Who would think that was a trigger? Not I.
