During the training, participants discussed:
- types of psychological trauma and their impact on learning;
- the neurobiology of trauma;
- how traumatic experiences affect memory, concentration, and emotions;
- how teachers can respond in a supportive way while creating a safe learning environment.
Participants worked with real-life cases, discussed the influence of traumatic experiences on the learning process, and explored practical tools for supporting students, as well as the importance of creating a safe and supportive educational environment.
