  Schizophrenia - Coping with...

  Schizophrenia is a complex and often misunderstood mental health disorder that affects a person’s thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It is characterized by episodes of psychosis, which can include hallucinations, delusions, disorganized thinking, and impaired social functioning. While schizophrenia is a chronic condition, with proper treatment and support, many individuals can manage their symptoms and lead fulfilling lives. 
  Schizophrenia does not manifest in the same way for everyone. Some individuals may experience severe and persistent symptoms, while others may have periods of stability with occasional relapses. The disorder typically emerges in late adolescence or early adulthood, although it can develop later in life. Early detection and intervention are crucial in improving long-term outcomes. 
  There are several subtypes of schizophrenia, each presenting with different symptom patterns. Paranoid schizophrenia, once considered a distinct type, involves intense delusions and auditory hallucinations, often revolving around themes of persecution. Disorganized schizophrenia is marked by disorganized speech, erratic behavior, and difficulty with daily activities. Catatonic schizophrenia presents with extreme motor disturbances, including periods of excessive movement or complete immobility. While these classifications have evolved in recent psychiatric frameworks, they still help in understanding the diverse ways schizophrenia can manifest.

  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.
