Each year for the last decade I have reflected on my #traumainformed learning journey. This year with #AI we will most likely look back and realize that our pandemic shift was just a stepping stone disruption. #AIinEducation #TraumaInformed #SystemsChange

Exploring the balance between self-care and systems-care. Itās not just about individual efforts; itās about creating a supportive ecosystem. Thriving requires both personal wellness and systemic solutions. #SelfCare #SystemsCare #EcoSystemApproach #Wellness #traumaresponsive

Itās crucial to shift the narrative from āteacher resilienceā to āsystemic supportā. True trauma-informed education requires institutional change, not just individual endurance. #SystemicChanges #TraumaInformedSystems

#Traumainformed education requires systemic support, not just teacher-driven efforts. Without systemic backing, we risk overburdening teachers and losing consistency. Itās essential for lasting change that the responsibility and resources are shared at all levels. #SystemicChange

Great take on #quietquitting as the field of education tackles how to attract new teachers. It appears our model of working 15-20yrs to top out on salary schedule isnāt going to turn many our way.

You may have heard of "quiet quitting." It's the choice to do only your assigned work ā and nothing more. But some experts say it's a misnomer for simply setting healthy workplace boundaries and refusing to be exploited for free extra labor. https://t.co/PC0Du7tFI6
