We have snapped when we have had too much on our plate, become defensive when something touched a nerve, avoided something we did not want to face, kept ourselves relentlessly busy, withdrawn or said something we later wished we had not. We have also watched other people do the same. Reacting to the world around us is part of being human. Sometimes it is loud and obvious. Anger, shouting, arguing, tears or an explosive response quickly draw our attention.

It certainly didn't begin with a business plan, a website or a decision to create a program. In many ways, it has been taking shape across most of my life: through the teachers who influenced me, almost three decades working in education, my studies in psychology and education, becoming a parent, my own experiences of stress and loss, and a continuing curiosity about what helps us navigate life as...]]></description><link>https://www.wiselearn-ed.com.au/post/wiselearn-began-long-before-it-had-a-name</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6aab99903663585669c6d998</guid><pubDate>Sat, 19 Sep 2026 02:04:24 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/e19eb1_6a4c081f3d4141b886eb1b032914f281~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Nicole</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why Human Interaction Still Matters in Learning]]></title><description><![CDATA[There has been a strong movement in education towards greater structure, explicit teaching and measurable academic progress. There are good reasons for this. Children benefit from clear teaching, modelling, repetition, predictable routines and well-designed learning experiences. Structure can reduce uncertainty, make expectations clearer and create conditions in which children are better able to participate and learn. I value structure. Across almost three decades in education, I have seen...]]></description><link>https://www.wiselearn-ed.com.au/post/why-human-interaction-still-matters-in-learning</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6aac412777684b726ca190de</guid><pubDate>Sat, 19 Sep 2026 02:03:46 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/e19eb1_bb395fd397e74ea39d8a59feffb35cc9~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Nicole</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[We Don't Have to Wait Until Things Go Pear-Shaped]]></title><description><![CDATA[My dog Georgie has been barking a lot since I moved into my townhouse. Some days it feels as though the whole world walks past our front window with its parade of dogs. Other days, a leaf blows by and apparently it's game on. For a while, I was focused on the obvious problem: the barking. How do I stop it? How do I redirect her? What else can I do to help her settle? Then I started paying more attention to what was happening before the barking. Georgie could see everything outside. Every dog,...]]></description><link>https://www.wiselearn-ed.com.au/post/we-don-t-have-to-wait-until-things-go-pear-shaped</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6aac6ce2207018829d074d31</guid><pubDate>Fri, 18 Sep 2026 04:47:43 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/e19eb1_e4e2bd1be6a14a289fe2096005d26ad1~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Nicole</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
