Additionally, Masten and Obradović expand on this definition by saying that resiliency consists of "concepts related to positive patterns of adaptation in the context of adversity" (Masten & Obradović, 2006). ]]> 2018-07-01 21:23:20 UTC https://padlet.com/ewgomez/rd87fd3ft70/wish/269093063 How Do Schools Affect Resiliency? ewgomez https://padlet.com/ewgomez/rd87fd3ft70/wish/269093445 For teachers and counselors, aiding in a child's resiliency is an important aspect of the job. Masten says that, "Teachers, school counselors, and other staff function directly as promotive and protective factors in the lives of high-risk children while also nurturing the learning skills, knowledge, self-regulation skills, and self-protective skills that children need to adapt on their own" (Masten, Herbers, Cutuli, Lafavor, 2008).]]> 2018-07-01 21:32:46 UTC https://padlet.com/ewgomez/rd87fd3ft70/wish/269093445 Ways Teachers and Counselors May Contribute to Resiliency ewgomez https://padlet.com/ewgomez/rd87fd3ft70/wish/269094286
