EDU 579 - Trauma Sensitive Classrooms

3 CR

Traumatic stress affects children’s schooling, interfering with their ability to concentrate and learn, delaying development in their brains and bodies, and changing how children view their world and their futures. Caring adults can help through their capacity to listen, connect, and protect. This course will give pre-service educators the opportunity to cultivate those capacities for adaptation to a trauma-sensitive classroom setting.

Prerequisite(s): Graduate Standing or permission of instructor.
