LAUSD: The Joyful Toolkit: Evidence-Based Practices for Positive Classrooms

Course #NA-22-327       Instructor: Mallack Walsh         2 Salary Points

Are you ready to move beyond the daily grind of compliance and rediscover the spark that brought you to education? The Joyful Toolkit: Evidence-Based Practices for Positive Classrooms is a hands-on course designed for K-12 educators who want to transform their classrooms into vibrant hubs of engagement and wonder. We move past "toxic positivity" to dive deep into the neurobiology of learning, exploring how research-backed strategies in building relationships, fostering student autonomy, and incorporating play can physically prime the brain for academic success. This course isn't just about making school "fun,” it's about leveraging the science of joy to increase student resilience, lower stress, and create a culture of belonging where every learner can thrive.

Los Angeles teachers are limited to enrolling in a maximum of six courses per session through ED Technology Specialists.  If students finish coursework before the session end date, paperwork for salary points will be processed at that time.
