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 takes a step back and provides a fascinating overview of some of the parenting challenges that continue during our nearly two-year old pandemic. Dr. Shaw would like to see parents take a more active role in providing the necessary learning opportunities for their children that are missing because of the altered social settings and unnatural interaction that is taking place currently in schools. She suggests that the effort may not always be fun or painless, but it seems essential as socialization for young children continues to be severely disrupted.
