Stress, Trauma, and the Brain: Insights for Educators--The Neurosequential Model

The Neurosequential Model in Education, based on an understanding of the structure and sequential nature of the brain, can help educators increase their students’ engagement in learning and mitigate behavioral problems. Listen as Dr. Perry describes the model and its significant impact on how we interact with our students, our own children, and each other.

I love how calm he is. I am processing this and my blood pressure goes up just thinking about applicable situations.

[@zetaanich9624]

Brilliant - such wonderful clarity, clearing out the noise from the message. Dr Perry is outstanding in making the neuroscience useful in the real world.

[@user-oc3jf7lu1q]

100% true. I’m a teacher. I figured out that stress is like poison. I learnt to regulate, so that I don’t waste time because if I’m not regulated my students will take longer to regulate. I’ve got this journey to the cortex figured out nicely despite the fact that I had no idea that I’m on my way to the… cortex. :D

[@profdavidclark]

Brilliant! Makes so much sense.

[@TheRemmertMethod]

Brilliantly explained!!

Looking for any specific information on Dr. Perry’s educational background and research, one can’t but get confused: is he a psychiatrist? Or is he a Neurologist? Or maybe he is a Neuropsychologist? Or, is he a Pediatric Physician? To make such profound statements about Neuroscience on brain, I’d assume that he is a Neurologist or Neuropsychologist. The fact is: he is neither one nor another. 🤷🏼‍♂️ His theory is very interesting. No doubt. However, it is just HIS OWN THEORY!! Not supported by ANY current Neuroscientific data! What would really help the viewers, is the statement at the beginning of this episode re: Dr. Perry’s credentials in Neuroscience. So, asking our educators to teach his theories to children is a very slippery slope of a cult formation. Let’s leave the educators to their primary responsibilities and leave “questionable” theories to academicians.

[@olayak]

He's a psychiatrist and there is plenty of research to back up his assertions.

[@andreirodin2061]

@@olayak I think you really missed my point: he is a psych Dr who is NOT a Neurologist! His “hypothesis “ (mind you !) has very LITTLE scientific support in Neuroscience, while there seems to be huge support (MOT evidence based!!) from his own field. Lat me ask you: would you go to a Psych Dr for a brain surgery? Dr. Perry’s ideas (OPINIONS) are no more scientific than DSM book of diagnoses🤣🤣 Care to chat more?

[@sk8rmgee]

He looks like he knows the right meds to give himself. Prolly oxys and fetty

While I agree with the principles and the intent, I have seen other models in the past rely on such over-simplifications of neuroscience to sell a practice. I understand that it imparts an authority to the model, making a "soft science" appear to be a "hard science", but it also instills a false sense of biological determinism which people project onto other aspects of their lives, and other people. I strongly object to teaching children such reductive beliefs about their own brains, and feel that the same goals could be obtained without the air of pseudoscience which is all too pervasive in society already.

[@221b-Maker-Street]

What a rather pompous comment! The model is not oversimplified. This video is a bite-size _introduction_ to Neurosequential Therapeutics. There's a wealth* of respected, peer-reviewed research evaluating its effectiveness and impact.* As for your assertion that it's a soft science pretending to be a hard science, the measures of a hard science are perceived methodological rigour, exactitude, and objectivity; whether the science can be applied or not. Social sciences such as psychology and sociology use mathematical models extensively. This model lacks neither rigour nor application. It's comments such as these that stigmatise so-called 'soft' sciences, affecting perceived value of such disciplines to society. This creates an unwarranted imbalance in public perception, wider recognition and vitally in the availability of funding thereby imposing a rather set of brakes on advancements that measurably improve human lives. *Research: Hambrick, E.P., Brawner, T., & Perry, B.D.

@@221b-Maker-Street So you choose to insult and engage in logical fallacies rather than address my concerns. And you call other peoples opinions pompous? You really need to look in the mirror.

I guess you didn't realize that you only referenced 2 primary investegators who cite each other in each of their papers. Yeah... that tracks. You let your emotions get ahead of you rather than understanding what I said.

Could you please name the “ models” you are referring to in your comment?

[@elidavis9240]

This book is amazing. I enjoy the material Oprah covers, always have. While reading this book, I realized that I'm the teacher from St As. that worked with the young black boys in the class. I went through Bruce Perry's training at St A. I have used this understanding for over 14 years in the classroom. I even did a talk on it a few years back for Charlotte Mecklenburg Public Schools. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mHmlXoulhc98jLM

Thank you for the link - it was a really good talk and made me think about some of my students.
