How Backstories Influence the Way Teachers Speak To and About Traumatized Students: A Case Study
Many students experience or have experienced both Adverse Community Environments and Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) (Alive and Well STL, 2021). When students come to school having experienced these ACEs they may be operating from the survival region of the brain. The four conditions of the survival brain are fight, flight, fright, or fawn. (Alive & Well STL, 2021). These conditions cause behaviors that may appear to teachers as misbehavior, classroom disruption, and rule breaking. These misunderstandings and misinterpretations may be due to teachers’ lack of knowledge about their students and specifically about their traumas, current and past (Griffin-King, 2022). Additional causes may be teachers’ lack of emotional intelligence due to stress and being overwhelmed, as well as implicit and explicit attitudes toward minorities, marginalized groups and students with special needs.
This qualitative study was a case study methodology to investigate real-life experiences of secondary teachers through the use of systems of detailed in-depth data collection from journals, interviews and interactive activities (Creswell & Poth, 2018). The case for analysis is the language teachers use to talk to and about traumatized students. The parameters are defined as secondary teachers who teach students with maladaptive behaviors that regularly disrupt teaching and learning. The intent of this case is to describe and detail how teacher language regarding student misbehaviors, classroom disruptions and rule breaking may change when teachers know of students’ trauma prior to the maladaptive behavior

Don\u27t Go it Alone: The Restorative Power of Peer Relationships in Mid-career Librarianship
Librarian career trajectories are varied and unique, but the cultivation of nurturing peer relationships among library professionals can prove essential on the road to professional and personal fulfillment. Far from a work distraction, the intentional building and maintaining of personal relationships can be truly professional acts. In this chapter, we discuss the ways in which our relationships with peer librarians have helped us identify and unlock opportunities, grow intellectually, prevent boredom and mid-career stagnation, and resist the diminishing effects of burnout. Through the informal communities of practice we have forged for ourselves, we have been introduced to new ideas and inspired to take on challenges and experiment professionally. We have found trusted sounding boards and collaborators and, at times, support for making tough decisions about career opportunities to pursue (or not). We have learned that accepting the support of others makes us stronger and more resilient than we are alone and that genuine care for each other as whole persons contributes to both professional and personal growth
