Improving student learning with the tools of neuroscience and mindfulness. How is expanding students’ strengths more effective than improving their weaknesses? Why is creating a school where staff and students feel safe necessary for learning? How can anchoring with simple mindfulness practices prevent classroom behavioral problems? There is more to a classroom than just a teacher and a group of students. All classroom interactions have “invisible” neurobiological, emotional, and social aspects—the emotional histories of students, the teacher’s own background and biography. In this book, Kirke Olson takes lessons from brain science, mindfulness, and positive psychology to help teachers understand the full range of their students’ school experiences. Using its classroom-ready resources, teachers, administrators, parents, and policy makers can make the invisible visible, turning human investment in their students into the best possible learning outcomes.

How one activity can lead to lifelong benefits for your child: “Parents, teachers, and all who love children will be inspired.” —Amy Dickinson, New York Times bestselling author of Strangers Tend to Tell Me Things Longtime elementary school teacher Kim Jocelyn Dickson believes every child begins kindergarten with a lunchbox in one hand and an “invisible toolbox” in the other. In this book, she shares with parents the single most important thing they can do to foster their child’s future learning potential and nurture the parent-child bond that is the foundation for a child’s motivation to learn. Drawing on both neuroscientific research and her own experience as an educator, she concludes that the simple act of reading aloud has a far-reaching impact that few of us fully understand—and our recent, nearly universal saturation in technology has further clouded its importance.In The Invisible Toolbox, parents, educators, and early literacy advocates will discover:Ten priceless tools that fill their child’s toolbox when they read aloud to their childTools parents can give themselves to foster these gifts in their childrenPractical tips for how and what to read aloud to children through their developmental stagesDos and don’ts and recommended resources that round out all the practical tools a parent will need to prepare their child for kindergarten and beyondHow parents can build their own toolboxes so they can help their children build theirs

Invisible Learning reveals the secrets behind one of Harvard's most successful statistics courses. Dan Levy is famous at Harvard for his inclusive learning environment, which leaves students feeling not just confident about using statistics in the real world, but also seen, heard and loved. Written from the perspective of the student, the book is a fly-on-the-wall case study of the course. It argues that the learning environment is composed of invisible bonds between students and teacher, and considers how he strengthens those bonds and uses them to maximise learning. It seeks to answer the question, asked by students and Harvard faculty alike: "How does he do it?"

This book seeks to share the experiences of gay males in Jamaica on their formal schooling experiences through reflection. It examines themes of curriculum, teacher behaviour, school leadership and advocacy, the role of the guidance counsellors, and the dynamics of navigating home, school, community and church for LGBT students. It examines the perceptions of self-identified Jamaican gay men and their understanding of their formal schooling experiences between the ages of 6 - 18 years. A snowball sample of 121 self-identified gay men completed the online questionnaire, participated in focus groups, and engaged in one-on-one interviews. I felt obligated, since, as a researcher, lecturer of diversity studies in education, and leadership and a person of influence, it was my duty to come in front of my own work and share my own voice. When I was young, I did not see any gay role models, except for those on TV. I did not see the successful black gay man that would have given me courage and hope to know that I could become more than what the school and neighbourhood bully said I would become. Today, things are slowly changing and more and more of our young black gay men have possibilities. With the work of leading LGBT organizations, movements, advocates, and allies, we will continue to hope, work, and advocate for change. I hope that this book will be part of the continued change towards a more understanding Jamaica - where our LGBT people will have the space to grow, flourish, and be celebrated.
