We are most pleased to announce the release of this videocourse. From early reviews, the response is enthusiastic. One counselor in the adoption field who previewed this course proclaimed “It was a wonderful course and the material was laid out the best of any of the courses to date”. Over the years, Dr. Neufeld has done a lot of work in the adoption and foster communities and his hope is that with this course, he can make a significant contribution to this challenging arena.
This course is primarily presented to parents and supporting professionals in the foster and adoptive communities but the content also applies to step parenting as well. This course is also suitable for the support cast of surrogate parents: teachers, grandparents, uncles and aunts.
The following is from the description on the back of the DVD cover:
The impact of attachment disruption, even when in the best interests of the child, can be deep and profound, interfering with even the most loving and skilled attempts to raise the child by foster parents, adoptive parents or step parents. When such children fail to adequately re-attach to the parent or parents who are raising them, or who are unable to recover from the impact of the attachment disruption, nothing works as it should.
Our practices with such children need to be founded on a solid knowledge base of their attachment needs and of the effects that attachment disruption can have on subsequent development and receptivity to care. Transplanting children - whether the result of remarriage, adoption, parental loss, removal, or change in custody - constitutes the most difficult challenge in raising children. Like plants, it is all about their attachment roots; unlike plants, it is a great deal more complicated.
Power To Teach
Gordon Neufeld Ph.D.
A 4-session videocourse for educators
Teaching is getting harder, not easier. This despite the fact that teachers have never been more educated, technology has never been more advanced, curriculum has never been so refined and pedagogy has never been so honed. Although these factors are important, the true problem in schooling lies elsewhere. Dr. Neufeld has been joining the dots for over 35 years and has concluded that the power to teach is being eroded in today's society. In his insightful analysis, Dr. Neufeld uncovers four natural sources of power and reveals the handicaps that result when these are missing. He exposes the reasons why today's teachers more than ever need to harness the power of attachment to do their jobs. He also provides practical suggestions on how to do this. Educators who have been exposed to this material have found it most inspiring and helpful. Group facilitation requires certification.
In this 4.25 hour videocourse, Dr. Neufeld sheds light on this dark side of human nature. This refreshing developmental analysis of bullies reveals instinctive roots embedded in the dynamics of attachment and the flight from vulnerability. The implications for intervention and treatment are profound and largely counter to prevailing approaches. Invited to keynote on Canada's first national conference on bullying, Dr. Neufeld shares the insights that have evolved as a result of years of experience working with bullies of all kinds, combined with his mastery of the developmental literature. Group facilitation requires certification. Please consult the training page for details regarding facilitator training and certification. The videocourse can be divided into four sessions for group study.
