There is still a very nascent and as yet relatively unarticulated understanding of how profoundly trauma, adversity, and violence adversely affect teaching and learning.
-Jeanie Tietjen

-Jeanie Tietjen
Learning is very vulnerable. It involves being wrong, failing, failing in front of other people.
