Mentorship-based Theater Arts Support of Positive Youth Development across STEAM

To use a human centered design process to partner with community co-designers to understand how mentorship within a developmentally positive environment supports the mediators of reflection, belonging, and meaning-making to increase neurodiverse students' self-advocacy, self-perception, self-purpose, and ultimately in service of promoting academic performance, thriving and well-being. The purpose of our project is to explore how the components of metacognition play a unique part in shaping the psychological and social landscape of young individuals with learning differences. Our study will examine how the effective application of these assets can transcend theatre arts through STEAM environments to support diverse learners with continuity throughout their learning experience.

Toothaches or Headaches? Pediatric Dentists' Management of Migraines

We are specifically interested in understanding the knowledge, beliefs, patient identification, practice intervention, and future focus of pediatric migraine management by pediatric dentists and pediatric dental residents. This will allow us to evaluate the level of education and training, assess clinical exposure to pediatric patients presenting with migraine-associated symptoms, determine the level of interest among pediatric dentists in expanding their role in pediatric migraine management, and identify potential gaps in training to enhance interdisciplinary collaboration.

Neuroeducation for JJ Professionals

Most professionals working with JJ-involved youth have little understanding of how neuroscience and brain development can shape effective strategies for treatment. This gap in knowledge can lead to misconceptions about adolescent behavior, compromising the effectiveness of their approaches. There is also a gap in the connection between scientific research and practical application within the JJ system. This gap often results in the use of cookie-cutter programs that rarely address individual drivers of problem behavior. Enhancing the knowledge of JJ professionals about brain development promises to foster more informed and effective approaches to JJ-involved youth by equipping professionals with better understanding of root causes and drivers of problem behaviors and helping to determine more effective treatment plans. The program proposed here bridges this gap begins by developing a manual for JJ professionals about how brain science can be useful in addressing the needs of youth in the system.
