Dr. Sarah Lonbay (University of Sunderland) and Dr. John Cavener (Northumbria University) have just published a new study which explored how to teach difficult ‘trauma material’ in the classroom.

Sarah and John suggest a range of techniques and strategies for enhancing ‘best practice’ when teaching difficult and potentially distressing content.
