Understanding how emotions impact learning is the first step, but once  
participants in a family literacy program are in the midst of an emotional  
crisis how can we help them get back on track?  

In the  upcoming October 19th NAASLN webinar, Emotions Impact Learning Part 
 II, you will learn how to implement specific techniques to immediately 
help  these learners struggling with crisis situations and old baggage. You 
will learn  how to help them get beyond their current emotional situation and 
back on track  toward achieving their stated learning and employment  goals! 

Emotions Impact  Learning!  
Part II Techniques to  Address Emotional Issues of Adult Learners 
October 19   -   4:00 – 5:00 p.m.  ET 

Participants will learn how to implement specific techniques to  
immediately help learners struggling with crisis situations and old baggage get  
beyond their current emotional situation and get back on track toward achieving  
their stated learning and employment goals!

emotional  crisis situations, helping students to discuss their emotions 
about learning,  establishing a mindset for fulfilling strengths-based 
intentions, and empowering  students to learn how they can be helpful with their 
peers.

Emotions Impact Learning! Part l and ll – An  Overview 

Do the  students in your program move out of one emotional crisis and into  
another?  Do they begin your program with great gusto and then drop  out?  
Do students often forget information they just learned last  week?   

Part I, The  Neurological Underpinnings of Emotions,

Part I offers an understanding of how and why emotions are brain  functions 
that are both core and key to learning, why childhood negative  educational 
experiences continue to impact adult learning, and why unaddressed  
emotional issues will impact learning.
