MIND in the Making Institute
Even as technology causes the world around us constantly to change, the social and emotional needs of children have not. Ellen Galinsky’s research has identified Seven Essential Skills that are essential for children in the short- and long-term.
Focus and Self Control
Perspective Taking
Communicating
Making Connections
Critical Thinking
Taking on Challenges
Self-directed, Engaged Learning
During the 2 ½ day Mind in the Making Institute, you will be on a learning journey where you will reflect on your own experiences and practices, learn what researchers have discovered about how children learn best, and discuss how to apply this research in your role as a parent or educator. Once the Institute is complete, the participants will be able to conduct MITM trainings for other practitioners in the early childhood field.
