The Advantages of Neurodiversity, with Devon MacEachron, PhD
There may be more advantages to having a neurodiverse brain than we think, especially in our rapidly changing world. Listen as Dr. Devon MacEachron explains how creative, non-sequential, out-of-the-box thinkers may be perfectly wired for the work of the future.
Now we'd love to hear from you. What's bubbling up for you after hearing this vlog? Let us know in the comments section below!
It makes me think, why does the average, Canadian public school continue to cater to neurotypical learners?
Thank-you Debbie and Dr.MacEachron for this positive news. I just wish moe people (esp teachers ) were exposed to this god news!!
I cried. It’s such a contrast compared to what I encountered at school, and _still_ encounter as a 2E adult in the workplace. My brain is apparently specialized for the problem-solving nature of the work that I do. That said, I frequently encounter linear expectations for social and workplace norms that are hard to understand and conform to. We have a LONG way to go to make societal room for neurodiversity.
Thanks for the work that you do…
