When I talked with Dr. Susan Hopkins for Episode 46 of the Pre-K Teach and Play podcast, we explored what the term "self-regulation" really means.

In this bonus episode with the incredible Dr. Stuart Shanker, we go even deeper.

For example, did you know that at one time there were 447 different definitions of self-regulation in education....446 of which were all about self-control?

Yeah, I didn't either!

In this Pre-K Teach and Play bonus podcast episode, Dr. Stuart Shanker explains how his fascination with the American Revolution as a young school boy in Canada resulted in a passion for understanding how children (and humans in general) develop.

In this bonus episode, Dr. Shanker discusses:

What he discovered about the difference between the educational, neuroscientific, and physiological understandings in terms of what it means to self-regulate
The science of stress and why we need to reframe labeling reactions as stress-behavior...not misbehavior
How our brains have grown and evolved over time
What it really means to be a stress detective
