PROJECT ACHIEVE EDUCATIONAL SOLUTIONS

A 2023 Review of Education’s Most (De)Pressing Issues: Productive Practices to Address the Pressure Points in Your District or School   https://lnkd.in/ew6mdEJq     This new Blog first presents a year-end analysis and review of the most-pressing issues in education during 2023. Here, we discuss the nation’s top thirteen educational challenges—challenges that districts and schools are not only spending the most time to address, but that most impact the academic and social lives and outcomes of our students.    The Blog then identifies the needed solutions to these issues by reviewing our twenty-three 2023 Blogs—which we organize in five themes: (a) Hiring, Supervising, Supporting, and Retaining School Staff; (b) Encouraging Effective and Eliminating Ineffective Staff Policies and Practices; (c) Special Education Services for Students with Disabilities; (d) Social-Emotional Learning’s Illusions and Realities; and (d) Race and Equity: Research and Effective Practices.   Links to each of the 23 Blogs are provided along with their titles and a brief overview.   While it may be easy to be “depressed” regarding these significant and chronic educational issues, we believe that there are solutions if we dedicate ourselves to effective strategic planning, objective and data-driven decision-making, and the courage to recognize that there are rarely “quick fixes” and we need to “go slow to go fast.” Three recommendations are presented to help districts and schools to implement these solutions.   Read this important Blog.

Too Many Schools are Teaching Students to Control their Emotions. . . the Wrong Way! Because They Don’t Understand the Science, They Won’t Succeed in the Practice   https://lnkd.in/e7hxd2ti   This Blog begins by noting that most school leaders don’t fully understand the science-to-practice of Social-Emotional Learning (SEL)—explaining why many of their SEL activities are not resulting in the social, emotional, and behavioral student actions, interactions, and reactions they desire.   Similarly, most schools are teaching students emotional self-control or self-regulation in ways that so ignore the neurobehavioral and psychological research-to-practice that they will not succeed here either.   Thus, this Blog describes the science-to-practice blueprint needed to teach all students emotional self-control. We describe the: (a) four interdependent components; (b) neuro-physiological and psychological science of self-control; (c) scientific components of the Emotional Control Paradigm; and (d) how to condition self-control through an evidence-based social skills training process.   Implicit in this process is the goal of neurobehaviorally conditioning students to “Think before they Act”—countering what often occurs neuro-physiologically when they emotionally lose control and “Act before they Think.”   To end the Blog, we provide a link to a free, archived 90-minute national webinar that expands on this topic.   Read this important Blog.

“Protecting” US students from difficult & emotional historical events DENIES them a COMPLETE Education. New Blog discusses how teaching about the terrorist attack on Israel does not differ with accurate & objective teaching about 9/11, the Capitol Insurrection, & Black history. https://conta.cc/3MIlrnF

There are many reasons why students demonstrate angry, aggressive, and acting out behavior in their schools or classrooms—or anxious, withdrawal, and “checking out” behavior. This FREE LIVE 90-minute webinar (TODAY starting @ 2 PM Eastern) with National School Psychology Expert Dr. Howie Knoff focuses especially on the Tier 2 (strategic) interventions that schools can implement to assist challenging students who are demonstrating social, emotional, and/or behavioral challenges in their classrooms or across their schools. Listen as we link the "Seven High-Hit Reasons" for students' challenging behavior with over 30 evidence-based interventions that EVERY school should know (as part of its MTSS system), but MOST schools DON'T! https://conta.cc/473L5ve
