Self Across the Curriculum

Self Across the Curriculum is a professional development program for teachers, K-16 educators, administrators, policy-makers, counselors, psychologists, and professionals in related fields. Participants learn how to help young people develop their own paradigm of Self, self understanding, self esteem, and character to dramatically impact their academic achievement and overall quality of life. Participants learn to empower what is possible for their K-16 students versus focusing upon problems to fix.

Once these ideas and approaches are learned in professional development settings, they can be used in the classroom. They are incorporated into the development and delivery of lesson plans, across all academic subjects, helping students to be better, more engaged learners. The workshop manual serves as a reference guide to draw upon when teaching and assessing students.

Our programs are solidly grounded in the principles of human development, educational psychology, and educational philosophy. The theoretical basis of Self Across the Curriculum is that students will be better learners in their academic subjects if they know themselves better. The focus is on a self concept construct that includes: epistemology, locus of control, identity and character development. Our underlying assumption is that each young person is on a unique path of personal discovery to create his or her own destiny, and to live a life of total health, wholeness, and accomplishment.
