This episode, I bring you the live recording we did at the International Council on Development and Learning (ICDL) 2023 International DIRFloortime® Conference where I interviewed Dr. Ira Glovinsky who is a Clinical Psychologist in Michigan at The Glovinsky Center for the Child and Family , using a Developmental, Individual differences, Relationship-based (DIR®) framework. We discussed the component parts of a relationship, including the interoception that accompanies the development of a relationship, and how disruption or discord in any component aspect of the relationship influences its development, and how to tune into these inner signals, including the role of sensory experiences in this process.

Foundation Academics: What Is It? 35:06

לפני 8 years35:06

35:06

Foundation Academics for children with developmental differences, including autism, refers to strengthening the early functional emotional developmental capacities (FEDCs) that most neurotypical children master by about 48 months old. Without having these foundational developmental capacities for learning, attempts at traditional academics can be memory-based rather than thinking-based.
