Lifetime educator, Dr. Mindy Shaw, maintained a philosophy in her classroom of 4 to 8 year olds to "teach humanity daily" in addition to the more traditional skill sets of reading, writing and math. Now, in an era of remote and hybrid learning, the notion of teaching humanity is somewhat threatened. She has created a series of e-books and paperbacks so that parents can have the tools they need for also teaching social and emotional skills, and in this series, Dr. Shaw discusses what it means to teach humanity both in general and in an era of learning via computer.

In this podcast, Dr. Shaw conducts a brief discussion regarding interaction with your child during situations of adversity. She begins by breaking down your (the adult's) behavior into three important component parts... to begin with love, to have a strategy and to maintain your own resilience. Dr. Shaw also incorporates the notion of "Backwards Design" in education into this conversation. Backwards Design is an approach where you decide upon your desired result first, and then you can create a modality or curriculum to reach that goal. There's a lot of information in a short space in this podcast, and we hope you enjoy and try out what she suggests.
