In our second episode, NYKids Research Assistants Jessie Tobin and Paul Guay talk with Dr. Deborah Schussler, professor in the Department of Educational Policy and Leadership at the University of Albany, SUNY about mindfulness and how it’s application can improve the well-being of teachers and students.
Dr. Schussler’s research in the field of mindfulness focuses on the impact of mindfulness-based interventions on the wellbeing of educators and students. We had a blast discussing emerging research and future directions for mindfulness interventions in P-12 education.
