Stress, Emotions, & Learning: What's the Connection?
Sometimes it makes us laser focused - other times it leaves us floundering.  What is the deal with stress?  During this session, we'll explore three core mechanisms by which stress impacts learning and identify ways we can harness or reduce its effects to improve student performance.
