Supporting student resiliency

Transform your learning environment by elevating discipline and teaching resilience. Our strategies prioritize brain-building and equipping your students with the skills necessary to regulate themselves. These modules provide a practical, neuro-scientifically appropriate approach for elevating discipline and teaching resilience, creating a more positive and supportive learning environment for your students.

Strategies for educators

These strategies are developmentally appropriate for all students, from pre-K to12th grade, and are applicable for all educators, not just classroom teachers. In these modules, all educators will be able to learn strategies that will allow them to better support the development of student resilience.

Learning

These strategies are intended to supplement strong campus and classroom routines and procedures. By executing these strategies on your campus and in your classrooms, your routines and procedures will become more effective, as students are increasingly able to demonstrate the skills necessary to engage effectively in the learning environment.

Unleash the power of brain science

Dr. Tina Payne Bryson is a renowned expert in the field of brain science and child development. She is recognized for her work in integrating cutting-edge neuroscience with practical, evidence-based parenting and teaching strategies. Her work centers around helping parents and educators understand the emotional and behavioral needs of children from a brain-based perspective.

Modules

Take your teaching to the next level with our brain-based learning modules. Our modules are designed to harness the latest research in neuroscience to help you cultivate resilience and elevate discipline in the classroom. By understanding how the brain processes information, where students are developmentally, and how it is affected by emotions, you can create a learning environment that is more effective and empowering for your students. 

Our modules offer practical techniques for utilizing brain-based research in the classroom, providing you with the tools you need to make a lasting impact on your students. Sign up today and unlock the full potential of brain-based learning at your campus.

1 Discipline is Teaching

Discipline is about teaching and skill-building to help students become self-disciplined and resilient.
Behavior is Communication

2 Behavior is Communication

Students show you the very things they need to be taught and the skills they need to learn through their behavior.
""

3 The 4 S’s – Relationship on the Front Burner

Relationships are the key to successful discipline. Positive relationships help develop the brain to make good decisions.
""

4 Can’t vs. Won’t

At times, it looks like a student won’t make good decisions when, in reality, they are not capable of making good choices at that moment.
""

5 Reactive vs. Receptive

Timing is essential when it comes to effective discipline strategies. When you engage, a student will determine how well your message is received.
""

6 Dialing Down the Intensity

Logic is not the only way to make a student receptive to learning; sometimes, it is helpful to bring bottom-up approaches to dial down a student's intensity.
""

7 Fire and Wire

Repeated practice will help students master new skills that you teach.
""

8 Structure Plus Nurture

Effective discipline requires clear, consistent boundaries and empathy.
""

9 Consistent, Not Rigid

Effective discipline is not punitive, but rather meets students where they are and helps students build skills they need to make better choices in the future.

10 It All Starts With You

Educators are the models on campuses and in classrooms. Model for students how you are in control, and students will be able to handle their emotions better and manage their behaviors.

The Four Step Approach

These modules are designed with busy educators in mind. You can improve your craft anywhere and at any time. Each video is less than 5 minutes to watch and each module follows a proven-four-step approach:

1
Introduction

Learn the science behind how the brain works.

2
See it

Observe the strategy in action through educator and student scenarios.

3
Name it

Unpack the strategy further to better understand how to execute key actions.

4
Do it

Based on what’s modeled, practice the strategy to gain confidence.
