Listen "Pandemic Impact on Students"
Episode Synopsis
I was recently reading the January/February 2023 issue of "The Science Teacher" a publication of the National Science Teaching Association. In this issue, I read the "Editor's Corner" column, written by Ann Haley MacKenzie. She wrote an article entitled, "Did the Pandemic Impact the Brains of Our Science Students?" A recent study in the Journal, "Biological Psychiatry: Global Open Science," found that teen brains aged prematurely during the pandemic. The paper states that teenagers' brains aged several years in just a few months during the isolation and stress of the pandemic lockdown. For more information on this study, please visit: https://www.bpsgos.org/article/S2667-1743(22)00142-2/fulltext
