Teaching self regulation

WHO SHOULD TAKE THIS COURSE?

This course is ideal for early career teachers and experienced teachers who want to further their knowledge on how to teach self regulation strategies that support their students.

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Self regulation is a term we hear over and over again, but it is sometimes difficult to work out exactly what it means to teach self regulation. If you are experiencing challenges with your young learners, don’t panic because it certainly took us time to work out what self regulation is, and how to support the development of this important life skill. To help you we have developed this very informative course based on current research and theory, and packed with practical ideas and activities for you to use in your classrooms and settings. We will also explore developmentally appropriate expectations for children and how to support them in meeting these expectations.
