“Homework is a topic that causes more child and parent conflicts than just about anything. The purpose of the talk is to reduce conflict, make homework more productive, and increase independent study skills.”—Steven Shaw

Professor Shaw clinical and research interests include pediatric school psychology, improving education of children with rare genetic disorders and autism, and development of resilience skills in children at risk for academic failure.
