Resilience is a set of qualities that enable children to adapt and
transform, to overcome risk and adversity, and to develop social
competence, problem-solving skills, autonomy and a sense of
purpose. For children and young people it is as vital to possess
these qualities in school environments as in the family and the
community at large.This handbook for teachers and educators
explores ways of nurturing resilience in vulnerable students. It
proposes a new, positive way of thinking about schools as
institutions that can foster cognitive and socio-emotional
competence in all students.Individual chapters examine effective
practices in schools and classrooms, and assess a range of
classroom processes, such as engagement, inclusion, collaboration
and prosocial behaviour. The author makes use of case studies
throughout to bring to life classroom activities and concrete
strategies that will promote best practice for enhancing student
resilience, and offers a framework that can be adapted to the
existing nature, culture and needs of each individual school
community and its members. Promoting Resilience in the Classroom is
a valuable resource for educational practitioners as well as
educational officers and policy makers engaged in school
development and educational improvement.The Innovative Learning for
All series features accessible books that reveal how schools and
educators can meet the needs of vulnerable students, encouraging
them to engage in learning and to feel confident in the classroom.
Grounded in the latest innovative practice and research, these
books offer positive guidance on improving the educational
standards for all children by ensuring the most vulnerable are
supported.
