The Cognitive Effects of Math Anxiety and Stereotype Threat…

…and Strategies for Remediation.

Y’all, I need to work on writing shorter titles.

I’ll be presenting at the Association for Educational Therapists’ first ever East Coast Regional Workshop on January 23rd, and I’m really excited.  There are multiple reasons why.  First off, the East Coast has a paucity of ETs.  Go to CA and throw a stick at a crowd and you’ll hit one (don’t do that, actually, there’s no violence allowed), but there’s something like 90 of us total on the East Coast.  So having a talk featuring East Coast ETs is a Big Deal in my book.  Second, this new Zoom World has made it possible for people from all over the world to participate in regional conferences and workshops.  The national conference back in October?  I would not have been able to attend pre-Zoom World.  Flying to CA for a three day conference with three little kids at home takes feats of derring-do and emotional and childcare gymnastics that I have not yet accomplished.  Now, Zooming for 20+ hours is not something I’m super excited to do, well, EVER again, but I am grateful for all I have learned.  And the workshop is much shorter.  “Only” 6.25 hours!  But there are breaks!  And I will crack jokes!  And do little experiments on my audience!  And you won’t have to listen to me the whole time either – Mindy Eichhorn will also be presenting on Collecting Diagnostic Assessment/Clinical Interview Data to Individualize Targeted Mathematics Instruction.  See?  I’m not the only one with long titles.  I’m really looking forward to hearing what she has to say.

I hope you will join us!  I’m aiming my portion for virtual work with students, given how many of us are online right now, but there’s a lot for in-person work as well.  You can register here: https://aetonline.org/workshop-home-141

See you soon!  And as always, if you have a burning issue that you need help on, please reach out.  We do free initial consults, and it’s always amazing to me how much one can get out of even one conversation to help sort out challenging situations.
