Hopeful Education: Building Resilience in All of our Learners!
Hope science combines the research from the traumatology framework, adverse childhood experiences, and proven instructional strategies. We now have strong evidence that has established a connection between hope and reducing the impact of adverse childhood experiences. Hope science picks up where ACES science leaves off. Using the Hope framework, educators can increase learning capacity for students with trauma and students with no trauma history. Hope is good for all!
This talk was presented at:
