Debra Wilson - The Polyvagal Path to Joyful Learning: Transforming Classrooms One Nervous System at a Time. This is episode 597 of Teaching Learning Leading K12, an audio podcast.

Debra is the Founder of S’cool Moves and a graduate from the University of Southern Queensland Professional Studies Program. Her dissertation uncovered attributes of successful collaboration between occupational therapists and general education teachers working together in the classroom environment.

Dr. Wilson is a Reading Specialist who possesses teaching credentials in the areas of biology, physical education, multiple subjects, and reading and language specialist. Debra has taught at the college, high school, and elementary levels.

Debra consults with districts, focusing on collaboration between support staff and teachers. For over twenty years, her workshops have provided evidence based strategies to support all students in the classroom. 

She is the author of numerous books and instructional materials integrating neuroscience and neurodevelopmental activities into academics. Her latest additions are two books published by Norton, The Polyvagal Path to Joyful Learning: Transforming Classrooms One Nervous System at a Time and The Polyvagal Backpack: Classroom Activities for Focused, Joyful Learning.

Debra’s experience as the mother of a child with a constellation of challenges enhances her understanding of children who learn differently and have a difficult time fitting in with their peers.

Our focus today is Debra’s book - The Polyvagal Path to Joyful Learning: Transforming Classrooms One Nervous System at a Time. 

So much to learn.

Great conversation!
