Education and Psychology

Among the arenas in which mental health issues play out most significantly is in schools and classrooms. Issues of student behavior, of assessment, of counseling are all matters of both practical and theoretical significance. Beyond these, education itself can be thought of as the art, skill, and science of altering behavior and the brain. Resources provided here are intended both to highlight matters of mental health as they bear on education and ways in which education can help to better understand and improve mental health.
