“…The first principle, which serves as a foundation for all the rest, centers on the fact that children deserve the same level of respect as adults, and they want to be heard, accepted, understood, and supported (Gerber & Weaver, 1998). Respectful caregivers hold reasonable expectations of children based on the child's developmental level, and clearly communicate those expectations while maintaining a predictable environment (Lansbury, 2014a(Lansbury, , 2014bMarkham, 2012;Nelsen et al, 2015;Siegel & Bryson, 2011). They endeavor to help children understand their own behaviors by observing situations calmly and mindfully, and providing support and quality feedback to guide children in learning to tackle problems themselves, thereby building confidence, resilience, and practical skills which are transferable across changing developmental contexts.…”

“…Building on authoritative parenting behavior antecedents, modern approaches use the latest findings from developmental psychology and neuroscience research to improve parents' knowledge of child development. In addition, they emphasize the parent's ability to regulate their own emotions with mindfulness, thereby improving parenting skills and outcomes for children (e.g., Markham, 2012;Nelsen et al, 2015;Siegel & Bryson, 2011). Over time, theories of teaching and learning have also experienced changes with advancements in the scholarship of teaching and learning, from radical, to feminist, to learner-centered pedagogy, and more.…”

Classifications of parenting styles used in developmental psychology have long been compared with teaching styles in various educational settings. But, few comparisons have been made between current parenting trends and teaching approaches centered on advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion in higher education settings. This article focuses on applying one modern parenting style called “respectful caregiving” to teaching in university contexts. Four principles from respectful caregiving are explored in relation to teaching college students: (1) showing respect for students, (2) embracing student’s uniqueness, (3) exhibiting empathy for student’s emotional experiences, and (4) emphasizing equality with students. Each principle is explained in the context of respectful caregiving, then applied to teaching in university contexts. Practical teaching examples of each principle are provided, elucidating connections with the existing literature on adult education, culturally responsive, and inclusive practices from the literature on teaching and learning. Importantly, adopting these principles both as a caregiver or a teacher involve necessary time, resources, and space for critical self-reflection. Taken together, “respectful teaching” principles offer promise in reconceptualizing environments in higher education that support and empower diverse learners in gaining confidence, knowledge, and practical skills to enact meaningful and relevant social change.

“…Feedback from the coach and players, backed up by my observations, saw the need to explore performing under pressure. Here, we discussed the brain as a threat detector and that, when in high-pressure situations such as being behind in a match or experiencing high expectations, our threat detector (or limbic system; Bayle et al, 2009) can be triggered meaning we enter fight or flight mode (Siegel & Bryson, 2012). To relate this to LoL, I discussed how this can otherwise be known as tilt.…”

The team in the current case study is a professional League of Legends team within the United Kingdom. This case study aimed to develop team cohesion through increasing players’ awareness of self and others through mutual sharing of strength profiles. As the split progressed, the case also aimed to support the players to manage uncomfortable thoughts and emotions under pressure utilizing an acceptance and commitment therapy approach. This was done through five workshops over 4 weeks with one-to-one work blended into the program to ensure an individualized approach to enhance learning. This case study will outline the context of League of Legends, the needs analysis, intervention delivery, and feedback from interviews with players and coaches. Finally, this case study will provide reflections from the trainee sport and exercise psychologist working within esports for the first time.

“…According to Siegel and Bryson (2012), young children generally live moment by moment, and their engagement with the world is grounded in what is happening in the here and now. Young learners are naturally mindful and present in each moment; their carefree expression might possibly be the hallmark of the early years.…”

Young learners often are enchanted with the world, fascinated by the ordinary, and absorbed in the present moment. We explore interconnected ideas about how young children’s natural proclivity toward being curious, and noticing differences among people should be harnessed toward socially just ends. We consider ways in which joyfulness in learning are preserved, as teachers partner with young learners to cultivate their sense of justice in the classroom and beyond. We use disability studies in education as a theoretical framework for doing anti-bias work within early childhood education. We also describe global and neoliberal trends which directly and negatively impact the lives of young children by escalating injustice through educational practices and policies often disguised as reform. Ultimately, we propose, reimagining equity-based practices, positive disability narratives, freedom and humanity, and the concept of place within pedagogy to transform early childhood education.
