Description: This WordPress.com site is a window into educating the whole child, self regulation and standards based individualized education.
Learning during COVID-19 has brought back our focus to the whole child’s learning and development! Who is the learner? What are his/her attributes, motivations, inspirations, and values? Now that learning is embedded in the context of home based environments we have been forced to reevaluate how we teach, what we teach, why we teach it, and, whether or not our teaching skills are effective!
The blog is devoted to the whole kid who is discovering all of his/her interactive and reactive triggers that motivate learning. In recent years we have focused on the social side of learning and found social interactions to stimulate and motivate thinking and process. However, during the pandemic we are noticing the nuances of triadic reciprocality, the interactions of our personal, environmental, and behavioral experiences. How do we define social interactions is the new question we are all asking!
