Il évoque un élève de CM1 qui a changé lorsqu'il s'est senti en sécurité à l'école. L'intervention affirme que la résilience se bâtit collectivement et se transmet. Green définit la réussite comme le bien-être, le courage et la créativité, plutôt que les seuls résultats scolaires.

Drawing on his twenty-year journey from college dropout to doctoral student, Alasdair Green explores how resilience develops through perseverance, relationships, and the support of others. Through the story of a fourth-grade student who transformed when he finally felt safe at school, Green reveals how acts of compassion can help others discover their own strength. His talk challenges us to recognize that resilience is something we build together, share with others, and pass along to those who need it Alasdair Green, a native of Glasgow, Scotland, is an educator driven by empathy, taking chances, and a deep belief in connection. He came to Texas Woman's University with over a decade's experience in Title I schools, and his journey as a nontraditional student shapes his resilient approach and dynamic style. He fosters deep connections with students and peers using the restorative power of the outdoors to redefine success as well-being, courage, and creativity—not just test scores or titles. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
