Educating Students Experiencing Homelessness, Instability, and Disengagement: The Impact of the Autonomic Nervous System (Unabridged‪)‬

The book examines a social cognitive framework that includes the importance of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). It also discusses the positive influence of safety and belonging on the prefrontal cortex.

Educating Students provides tools for negotiating the abstract realities of school and raising achievement, it reveals strategies for calming students, and it explores how to build a wider community of support. Payne also tells how the instability of resources, time demands, and the demands of the environment negatively impact the ANS and how to address this problem.
