Educator Trauma: Dangers Plaguing Educators In and Out of the Classroom
February 5 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Join the Center for Academic Innovation for a NISOD Webinar Watch Party.
Session Description
Educator Trauma: Dangers Plaguing Educators In and Out of the Classroom
The return to the classroom by both teachers and students, post-pandemic, has brought a rise of challenges and dangers to educators that compound an already stressful career. Educators at every level have seen and reported an increase in physical and mental abuse at their campuses at the hands of students, parents, and even other staff members. Join me in a candid conversation on the research surrounding this matter and what we all can do to ensure the safety of everyone on our campuses.
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
- Know and understand the statistics of the origin of educator perceptions surrounding safety in the classroom.
- Know and understand trauma, trauma triggers, burnout, and self-care.
- Learn ways in which you can help promote a safe campus for all.
