Are YOU Promoting 'Learned Helplessness' in YOUR lessons?

The PE Umbrella | Podcasting ALL things Primary Physical Education - A podcast by Ryan Ellis - Sundays

Categories:

In this Episode of The PE Umbrella Podcast, I reflect on my teaching and whether or not it is promoting 'Learned Helplessness' amongst the children I work with. Having recently read 'essentialism' by Greg McKeown, I was intrigued by the term 'learned helplessness' and actually, how prevalent it is, not only in education, but every day life. I explore the meaning behind the term, how it relates closely to education and PE, and share ways in which we can ensure we are doing all that we can to stop our children taking the path of the 'I can't do it culture'. So what are you waiting for? Come and join me 'Under the Umbrella'
