How Do You Measure a Year was a great introduction for me to Educational Psychology. Getting to see how a single child evolved was insightful as a future Educator to understand what the mental capacity of given age group may be. Wanting to teach high school it was beneficial to see how Ella really became herself after the anxious couple of years at the end of middle school. Socially she talked about her friends more in high school, which helped be realize the importance of friendships in high school and how those friendships may affect students well-being.
