このコンテンツについて
Welcome to another episode of The Silk Stocking Sisters Podcast. In this thought-provoking episode, we welcome Dr. Robin Gustafson, Professor of Psychology at Western Connecticut State University and Cognitive Scientist, for a deep dive into the science of learning and the cognitive effects of school integration.
Dr. Gustafson, who holds a Ph.D. in Human Cognition and Learning from Columbia University, shares her insight into how learning is a fundamental, automatic process of the human brain, something the mind cant stop doing. Drawing on years of research in cognitive science, she breaks down what this means for students, educators, and the environments in which we learn.
Dr. Gustafson reflects on her own educational journey growing up in Massachusetts, where she attended a predominantly white public high school that bused Black and Brown students in from Boston. As an early ally of the schools Black Student Union, she emphasizes the critical importance of creating safe spaces for marginalized students within educational environments.
Both Dr. Canada and Dr. Gustafson explore the cognitive and emotional effects of school integration, particularly for Black and Brown students navigating unfamiliar and often unwelcoming environments. Together, they examine how these experiences shape learning, identity, and mental health.
