This video looks at how students feel about their performance in school and shows children and early adolescents struggling with negative feelings in classroom and home situations. It explores school situations that may generate negative reactions—such as humiliation, low self-esteem, loss of motivation, helplessness, anxiety and withdrawal—and offers practical strategies that teachers and parents can use to help children deal with their negative feelings related to performance. Viewers will gain insights into these challenges and how they relate to breakdowns in the neurodevelopmental functions of attention, memory, language and social cognition. Dr. Levine, other experts, teachers, parents and students themselves discuss their observations of children’s problems with feelings and motivation and suggest strategies to address them. Includes a guidebook.
