Positive Psychology and Student Well-Being in the Pandemic with Dr. Louise Lambert

The MindTales Collective

This week, we were honoured to chat with Dr Louise Lambert, a positive psychologist, researcher and educator with more than 20 years of experience. Louise shares her inspirational journey designing and implementing evidence-based interventions in educational settings and tells us more about the impact of the pandemic on student/teacher lives. She also shares her insights into the potential for positive psychology to shape the field of education following the pandemic. This was a meaningful conversation that serves as a reminder for us to keep championing equality and student well-being beyond the end of the pandemic.
