The topic of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) is a fundamental consideration for Early Intervention providers. ACEs impact how children learn, and while not all children will have experienced ACEs, reviewing how the brain responds to these experiences should be a core learning component for those working with children.

I really enjoyed learning about ACE's and how that stress/trauma can impact a child in a variety of different ways. It definitely opened my eyes and allowed me to have more compassion for the some of the children that I am currently serving. When I understand more of the biology and science behind it, it also helps me have more patience in understanding that they can't help the impulsivity that they have.

This is a good entry-level course. If you're already familiar with childhood ACE's, have read "The Deepest Well", or have been in trauma-based therapy, then you have likely already learned everything this course discusses. I would still highly suggest for anyone who does not already have background knowledge in this particular area!

This presentation clarified just how formative early life experiences are for children, whether those early experiences have a positive or negative effect. Review of the major parts of the brain were helpful in showing which areas are responsible for executive functioning and language skills. I valued the info on encouraging parent participation, especially those of lower SES... it shows that more typical language outcomes are possible if parents are given the right education and guidance.
