This fall the grade K-4 teachers at our school decided to introduce mindfulness and the zones of regulation into our classrooms. We went to a workshop on the topic and were able to learn a lot. We thought that there were some specific students who would benefit from having tools to help them to cope with their day to day stresses, but also, that the student population as a whole could benefit from this.

Carol Dweck Lewis and Virginia Eaton Professor of Psychology, Department of Psychology, Stanford University
Carol Dweck's research shows that students' "mindsets about their intelligence"--whether they believe it is a fixed or a malleable quality--guide their motivation and learning. Dweck reveals how praising students' intelligence can undermine motivation and learning and how an intervention in the schools that changes students' mindsets creates rapid changes in their motivation and grades. Finally, she shows how the mindsets have broad application to business, sports, conflict resolution, and health.

For 30 years, Afghanistan has been at the center of armed conflict, …
For 30 years, Afghanistan has been at the center of armed conflict, from the Soviet-Afghan War beginning in 1979 to the Taliban consolidation of power in the 1990s to the U.S.-led military intervention after September 11, 2001. How have Afghan people and leaders responded to events? The activities presented here provide students with a deeper look at what war has meant for Afghans Đ how they have lived, represented events, and attempted to rebuild their country. The monument of a tank in Herat with triumphant local soldiers offers a glimpse of both anti-Soviet and anti-Taliban feeling in one region of Afghanistan, and calls upon us to consider what messages monuments send. The trailer from the film Brewing Tea in a Kettle of War examines how the Provincial Reconstruction Team and the National Solidarity Program operated in Afghanistan and how reconstruction efforts are negotiated in the aftermath of conflict. The inclusion of weaponry and war motifs in women's traditional Afghan carpets shows how violence has permeated the society and even gained its own market niche. These sources bring us closer to Afghan perspectives on events than textbooks and news stories tend to do.

High-probability requests are one feasible classroom technique that can be effective in motivating students to engage in assigned classwork (Lee, 2006). The teacher first identifies an academic activity in which the student historically shows a low probability of completing because of non-compliance. The teacher then embeds within that low-probability activity an introductory series of simple, brief 'high-probability' requests or tasks that this same student has an established track record of completing (Belfiore, Basile, & Lee, 2008).
