For Educators
It is caring adults who create environments and opportunities that contribute to the healthy development of all children and youth. We see this in homes, communities and in classrooms. Many educational jurisdictions around the world, in fact, are offering leadership and actively fostering skills and behaviours that encourage Heart-Mind Well-being.
Heart-Mind Online provides evidence-informed knowledge, insight and resources that support educators in responding to the social and emotional learning needs of students. As a portal to both research and emerging practices, this tool aligns with the broader, pro-active initiatives across school systems.
From the early years to adolescents, educators will find information and ideas that can be incorporated into everyday instructional practices and, reciprocally, Heart-Mind Online is an avenue for professionals to share ideas in celebration of the great work already happening in schools.
