Relationships Matter

2/23/2021

 

KQED’s Mind/Shift posted this interview with Kathy Hirsh-Pasek and Roberta Golinkoff; two distinguished developmental psychologist’s with decades of experience. Hirsh-Pasek and Golkinkoff discuss the key concepts from their newest book
Becoming Brilliant: What Science Tells Us About Raising Successful Children
Picture

Hirsh-Pasek and Golinkoff  discuss the “need to change the whole definition of what success in school, and out of school, means”. They share how the “6 C’s” - collaboration, communication, content, critical thinking, creative innovation and confidence -  are essential for success in the 21st century, and what parents can do to help children acquire these abilities.  

The central theme to the INTERVIEW focuses on “reinforcing the idea of learning as a social, relationship-oriented process. It’s not just a grid for sorting and measuring our kids; it’s about how we are relating to our kids.”

ADDITIONAL RESOURCES...
“Listen, Talk, Answer - Support Your Child’s Learning” from the National Association for the Education of Young Children provides tips for “powerful interactions” that will support learning all the time and everywhere!
