Enough is enough. We feel this with each school shooting we endure. We feel this with each suicide that takes a loved one from us far too soon. More lives lost, more families devastated, more educators operating in fear. Each time, we’re left wondering if there’s anything else we could have done to prevent another tragedy. It’s no question that American youth are facing an urgent mental health crisis.

Ridgefield Park, NJ Psittaciformes, otherwise known as parrots, have an uncanny ability to mimic sounds and voices around them, though the idea of parrots mimicking at all is strange in an anatomical sense; these animals have no vocal cords and instead, a syrinx. Common vocalizations consist of squawks and chitters, but every once in a while, a parrot, typically a cockatoo or African gray, will go viral for their ability to speak.

The instructor’s PPT slides are brilliant. You’ve splurged on the expensive interactive courseware. Student engagement is stellar. So… why are half of your students still forgetting everything they learned in just a matter of weeks? It's likely a matter of cognitive science! With so much material to "teach" these days, we often forget to incorporate key proven principles into our curricula — namely active recall, metacognition, spaced repetition, and interleaving practice.

The following is a guest post from Dr. Jacie Maslyk. One important part about STEM education is thinking about sustainability and being a positive global citizen. When we teach students about the intersection between science, technology, engineering, and math there are many opportunities to include conversations around reusing, repurposing, and recycling.

The world needs more big thinkers – scientists and engineers with the critical thinking skills to tackle the big challenges facing our world. Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS)-based three-dimensional learning, or “NGSS 3 Dimensions’ are designed to build those critical thinking skills and connect learning science with building a better understanding of the world we live in.

Table of Contents Don’t you think there are many reasons to be envious of birds? They can fly off to different lands, eat juicy berries their entire lives, and sit on trees and sing all day long. But we can do one thing they can’t. We can talk, and they can’t… right? But that’s not entirely true. Some bird species can do that as well! Conversations with a Bird One of the most baffling puzzles in science is “why can’t chimpanzees and monkeys talk, but parrots can?

The following is a guest post from Dr. Jacie Maslyk. Bright bold graphic prints, delicate watercolor paintings, intricate yarn weavings. These are some of the art projects that fill the hallways in our schools. Art is eye-catching and often joyful. STEAM infuses art into its approach, but these two are not the same. Maybe your school uses the acronym as STEM or STEAM or STREAM.

San Fransisco, CA Many psychiatrists today are treating patients and mental health issues with the help of advanced technology. The technology we have today, can help workers in the medical field approach medical treatment with more sophisticated reason. Many different types of technology, such as mental health apps, video conferencing platforms, and artificial intelligence or chatbots can contribute to being a catalyst for expansion towards practicing psychiatry.
