Adverse childhood experiences describe traumatic events that occur before the age of 18 and are categorized into three groups: abuse, family/household challenges, and neglect. Our Building Student Resiliency course is for the educators who work with the youngest and most vulnerable members of our society: our children. We discuss how adverse childhood experiences impacts teaching and learning while also examining how to incorporate appropriate instructional strategies in the classroom. We also describe how to make sure schools are proactive in more therapeutic and compassionate ways for all students.

After completing this course, you should be able to:

  • Identify how adverse childhood experiences are categorized and how they affect children
  • Recall the effects of trauma on the brain and how adverse experiences affect behavior and learning
  • Recognize classroom interventions and behavior management techniques
  • Describe how to implement a trauma-informed framework in classrooms and school districts
