Though childhood is a critical period in human development, not all children have the benefit of being seen and treated as children in our society. When children don’t have the benefit of the innocence of childhood, they are subjected to harsher treatment and more punitive measures than children who are seen as children. This course is an exploration of the impact of these biases on our students, and the ways in which educators can become aware of and interrupt these biases that strip children of their right to be children. Suitable for teachers of all grades.


Several days prior to the start of the course, participants receive an email with instructions for accessing the course. A week’s material is posted at the start of each week.  Participants are expected to read content and review various resources, write replies/answer questions, share experiences, and engage in discussions with the course facilitator and other participants.  None of the assignments are completed in "real-time;" you can work at the times that best suit your own schedule.
