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 episode, Dr. Shaw follows up on some education concepts that were discussed in recent podcasts and also gets into the teaching strategy known as "scaffolding." She explains that educational tool for parents and teachers and she follows that up with a conversation about a child needing to be responsive in order to be responsible. As always, this is a fascinating and very helpful discourse.
