  Are you focused on what's wrong with your students? Now you can transform learning by reframing your view from what's wrong to what's strong. 
   
   
   
  "At risk." "Low." "Title I kids." If you've worked with students, you've probably heard or said these coded labels that reflect deficit thinking. This focus on weakness is a pervasive, powerful judgment that continues to harm students long after they leave school. It's time for educators to hack deficit thinking, think about SEL and about strength-based teaching, and reframe teaching and learning. 
   
   
   
  Nationally certified school psychologists McClure and Reed show teachers, administrators, and support staff how to unlearn student blame and reframe thinking to focus on students' strengths. When we acknowledge the impact of teaching practices and the broader structural inequities, we can help everyone reach their highest potential. 
   
   
   
  In Hacking Deficit Thinking, you'll learn how to: build on student strengths; think about student empathy; humanize your data; recognize the value of differences; think about teacher empathy; talk about equity in schools; tap into school-wide strengths; flourish as an educator.

  The Shocking Truth about Online...

  In today’s digital world, privacy is no longer a given—it’s something we must actively fight to protect. Every time we browse the web, use social media, or make online purchases, we leave behind a trail of personal data. This data is collected, analyzed, and often sold without our knowledge. Many people believe that if they have “nothing to hide,” they have nothing to worry about. However, this misconception ignores the real risks of online privacy erosion.  
    
  Companies, governments, and cybercriminals are constantly gathering information about individuals, using it for targeted advertising, surveillance, and even fraud. The websites you visit, the products you search for, and even the time you spend on a page are all tracked to create a detailed profile of who you are. This data is used to manipulate consumer behavior, influence political opinions, and, in some cases, restrict freedoms. Governments argue that surveillance is necessary for national security, but history has shown that mass data collection can lead to severe privacy violations and even oppression.  
    
  Beyond corporations and governments, cybercriminals exploit the vast amount of personal information available online. Data breaches have become more frequent, exposing millions of users to identity theft, fraud, and financial losses. Social engineering scams take advantage of publicly available data, making it easier for criminals to deceive and manipulate individuals. The more our private information is exposed, the more vulnerable we become to digital threats.

  We understand the workings of the human body as a series of interdependent physiological relationships, all the way down to the inner workings of every cell. Why is it that the accepted understanding that the physical phenomenon of the mind is attributed only to the brain? 
   
   
   
  In The Embodied Mind, internationally renowned psychiatrist Dr. Thomas R. Verny sets out to redefine our concept of the mind and consciousness. He brilliantly compiles new research that points to the mind's ties to every part of the body. 
   
   
   
  The Embodied Mind collects disparate findings in physiology, genetics, and quantum physics in order to illustrate the mounting evidence that somatic cells, not just neural cells, store memory, inform genetic coding, and adapt to environmental changes—all behaviors that contribute to the mind and consciousness. 
   
   
   
  Verny describes single-celled organisms with no brains demonstrating memory, and points to the remarkable case of a French man who, despite having a brain just a fraction of the typical size, leads a normal life with a family and a job. The Embodied Mind shows how intelligence and consciousness—traits traditionally attributed to the brain alone—also permeate our entire being.
