The Trauma-Informed Social Learning Course focuses on defining, identifying, and understanding children’s developmental experiences—such as early adversity or autism—that negatively impact typical social development. Our goal is to help teachers and programs protect vulnerable learners and provide the knowledge and support needed for robust instruction in social-emotional learning.

Linking Assessment to Instruction with a Structured Literacy Approach
• This interactive course is designed for educators with a background in Orton-Gillingham or Structured Literacy. In this class, we will explore different profiles of dyslexia together with related conditions, such as ADHD and dysgraphia. We will use our knowledge of structured literacy to analyze what different tests actually measure and how to think beyond test scores and data as a foundation for lesson planning and instruction.
