SUMMARY:[FAN] 10 to 25: The Science of Motivating Young People David Yeager\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, September 9\, 2024\, 7:00 PM\, 10 to 25: The Science of Motivating Young People\, Evanston Township High School Auditorium\, 1600 Dodge Ave.\, Door 6\, Evanston\, IL 60201. BONUS BOOK GIVEAWAY of 10 to 25 at the event\, while supplies last.  \nNo registration required. \n“David Yeager has spent his career designing experiments that inspire students to aim higher\, persist longer\, and achieve more. His engaging\, data-driven book is filled with practical insights to turn you into a better motivator.” – Adam Grant\, Ph.D. (FAN ’14\, ’16) \n“10 to 25 offers actionable advice and real-life storytelling that’s beautifully written\, comprehensive\, and filled with warmth.” – Angela Duckworth\, Ph.D. (FAN ’12\, ’16) \nNeuroscientists have discovered that around age ten\, puberty spurs the brain to crave socially rewarding experiences\, such as pride\, admiration\, and respect\, and to become highly averse to social pain\, such as humiliation or shame. As a result\, young people are subtly reading between the lines of everything we say\, trying to interpret the hidden implications of our words to find out if we are disrespecting or honoring them. Surprisingly\, this sensitivity to status and respect continues into the mid-twenties. In his first book\, 10 to 25: The Science of Motivating Young People\, acclaimed developmental psychologist David Yeager\, Ph.D. (FAN ’16) helps adults develop an ear for the difference between the right and wrong way to respect young people and avoid frustrating patterns of miscommunication and conflict. \nYeager explains how to adopt what he terms the mentor mindset\, which is a leadership style attuned to young people’s need for status and respect. Anyone can adopt the mentor mindset by following a few highly effective and easy-to-learn practices such as validating young people’s perspectives (rather than dismissing them)\, asking them questions (rather than telling them what to do)\, being transparent about your beliefs and goals (rather than assuming that they will accurately guess your thoughts)\, and holding them to high standards (rather than coddling them). Yeager’s pioneering research and interventions have shown these practices reduce a wide variety of behavior problems\, including school dropout\, unhealthy eating\, stress\, purposelessness\, mental health problems\, and more. \nThis event is suitable for youth 12+. It will be recorded but not live streamed and will be available on FAN’s website and YouTube channel.

SUMMARY:[FAN] Class Dismissed: When Colleges Ignore Inequality and Students Pay the Price Anthony Abraham Jack\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, September 25\, 2024\, 7:00 PM\, Class Dismissed: When Colleges Ignore Inequality and Students Pay the Price\, a FAN webinar featuring Anthiny Abraham Jack\, Ph.D. in conversation with Jeff Selingo. \nREGISTER: www.bit.ly/JackFANWebinar \nBONUS AFTER-HOURS EVENT: Attendees who purchase a copy of Class Dismissed from FAN’s partner bookseller The Book Stall are invited to attend an AFTER-HOURS event hosted by Jack and Selingo that will start immediately after the webinar. Details on the webinar registration page. \n“Jack powerfully illuminates the aspects of the student experience that exist beyond the gloss of the university brochure\, showing how inequality reverberates both on and off campus and providing readers with specific frameworks for what equitable university policies could look like.” – Clint Smith\, Ph.D. (FAN ’23) \nElite colleges are boasting unprecedented numbers with respect to diversity\, with some schools admitting their first majority-minority classes. But when the twin pandemics of COVID-19 and racial unrest gripped the world\, schools scrambled to figure out what to do with the diversity they so fervently recruited. And disadvantaged students suffered. In his new book\, Class Dismissed: When Colleges Ignore Inequality and Students Pay the Price\, Anthony Abraham Jack\, Ph.D. exposes how woefully unprepared colleges were to support these students and shares their stories of how they were left to weather the storm alone and unprotected. \nDrawing on the firsthand experiences of students from all walks of life at elite colleges\, Jack reveals the hidden and unequal worlds students navigated before and during the pandemic closures and upon their return to campus. He shows how COVID-19 exacerbated the very inequalities that universities ignored or failed to address long before campus closures. Jack examines how students dealt with the disruptions caused by the pandemic\, how they navigated social unrest\, and how they grappled with problems of race both on campus and off. \nJack will be in conversation with Jeff Selingo (FAN ’20\, ’21\, ’22)\, New York Times bestselling author of three books on education and the job market. For more than twenty-five years\, Selingo’s in-depth reporting and storytelling have provided practical insight about the future of higher education and the workforce to university leaders\, corporate executives\, as well as students and parents. \nThis event is suitable for youth 12+. It will be recorded and available on FAN’s website and YouTube channel.

SUMMARY:[FAN] Hope for Cynics: The Surprising Science of Human Goodness Jamil Zaki\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, September 26\, 2024\, 7:00 PM\, Hope for Cynics: The Surprising Science of Human Goodness\, a FAN webinar featuring Jamil Zaki\, Ph.D. (FAN ’19) in conversation with Robert Sapolsky\, Ph.D. \nREGISTER: www.bit.ly/ZakiFANWebinar \nBONUS BOOK GIVEAWAY! We are giving away copies of Hope for Cynics to randomly selected Zoom attendees. Details on the webinar registration page. \n“With rigorous scientific research and fascinating narratives\, Zaki challenges the belief that humanity is inherent selfish\, and advocates\, instead\, for a ‘hopeful skepticism’ that creates a better world.” – Charles Duhigg (FAN ’24) \nIn 1972\, half of Americans agreed that most people can be trusted; by 2018\, only a third did. Different generations\, genders\, religions\, and political parties all think human virtue is evaporating. Cynicism is an understandable response to a world full of injustice and inequality. But in many cases\, it is misplaced. Dozens of studies find that people fail to realize how kind\, generous\, and open-minded others really are. Cynical thinking deepens social problems: when we expect the worst in people\, we often bring it out of them. \nWe don’t have to remain stuck in this cynicism trap. Through science and storytelling\, Jamil Zaki\, Ph.D. (FAN ’19)\, director of the Stanford Social Neuroscience Laboratory and author of the new book Hope for Cynics: The Surprising Science of Human Goodness\, imparts the secret for beating back cynicism: hopeful skepticism—thinking critically about people and our problems\, while honoring and encouraging our strengths. Far from being naïve\, hopeful skepticism is a precise way of understanding others that can rebalance our view of human nature and help us build the world we truly want. \nZaki will be in conversation with Robert Sapolsky\, Ph.D.\, the John A. and Cynthia Fry Gunn Professor of Biology\, Neurology\, and Neurosurgery at Stanford University\, as well as a research associate at the Institute of Primate Research\, National Museums of Kenya. His books for non-scientists include Why Zebras Don’t Get Ulcers: The Acclaimed Guide to Stress\, Stress-Related Diseases\, and Coping; Behave: The Biology of Humans at Our Best and Worst; and most recently\, Determined: A Science of Life Without Free Will. \nThis event is suitable for youth 12+. It will be recorded and available on FAN’s website and YouTube channel.

In this tour de force\, acclaimed sociologist Jessica Calarco\, Ph.D. lays bare the devastating consequences of our status quo. \nHolding it Together: How Women Became America’s Social Safety Net draws on five years of research in which Calarco\, a sociologist and associate professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison\, surveyed over 4\,000 parents and conducted more than 400 hours of interviews with women who bear the brunt of our broken system. Tracing present-day policies back to their roots\, Calarco reveals a systematic agreement to dismantle our country’s social safety net and persuade citizens to accept precarity while women bear the brunt. She leads us to see women’s labor as the reason we’ve gone so long without the support systems that our peer nations take for granted\, and how women’s work maintains the illusion that we don’t need a net. \nCalarco’s research focuses on education\, families\, and health decision-making. She is interested in the structures of power and privilege that maintain socioeconomic\, racial\, and gender inequalities in these settings\, as well as the role that qualitative methods can play in uncovering these mechanisms. \nCalarco will be in conversation with Heidi Stevens\, Director of External Affairs for the University of Chicago’s TMW Center for Early Learning + Public Health\, and creative director for Parent Nation\, an initiative of the TMW Center. Prior to joining TMW\, Stevens worked at the Chicago Tribune for 23 years\, where she wrote a daily column called “Balancing Act.” She maintains a weekly nationally syndicated column. Stevens also serves as a FAN board member. \nThis event is suitable for youth 12+. It will be recorded and available on FAN’s website and YouTube channel.
