Did you know that computer science and coding education can reinforce T.I.P.S. (Trauma Informed Practices) in the classroom? Activities like creating websites, solving puzzles, and problem-solving through challenges can teach students self-regulation, collaboration, and empower students to share their voice.

Why is this important? Because about 70% of adults say they have experienced trauma in their lives. Untreated childhood trauma can lead to anxiety, depression, addiction, and other health issues. By introducing T.I.P.S. through computer science (CS) education, students will be better equipped to deal with the trauma they have faced.

There are 6 guiding principles to a Trauma-Informed Approach - Safety, Trustworthiness & Transparency, Peer Support, Collaboration & Mutuality, Empowerment Voice & Choice, and Cultural, Historical & Gender Issues. During this informative webinar we'll discuss these principles and how to reinforce T.I.P.S in the classroom with CS. Attendees will receive a recording of the webinar after the event. We look forward to seeing you there!
