Speakers Roberta Goldberg and
Andrea Lombardi will discuss the groundbreaking Frostig Center research study
about factors contributing to success for those with learning differences when
they speak at Mitchell College on Thursday, April 7 at 7:00 p.m. in Mitchell
College's Weller Center.
The Frostig Center's 20-year
longitudinal study identified six attributes which support students' striving
for success in school and life: self-awareness, proactivity, perseverance, goal
setting, support systems, and emotional coping strategies. Publications on this
research are available on their website at frosting.org. The Frostig Center
provides professional development and parent workshops teaching strategies
which help foster the development of these critical attributes in youth.
Roberta Goldberg, Ph.D. is a
licensed developmental psychologist with 35 years of experience consulting with
schools, teachers and parents concerning children's learning needs. Dr.
Goldberg is lead author or contributor on many papers published on success
attributes. Andrea Lombardi, B.A. is an educational specialist with over 30
years of experience as a classroom teacher, ECE consultant and staff
development presenter.
We hope you will join us for this informative workshop!
