Promoting Student Wellness during (Virtual) Instruction

Facilitator: Sarah Derbew, Classics

The end of pandemic teaching and learning finally seems in sight, but the collective fatigue and stress felt by students (and instructors) will likely shape our remaining months in the virtual classroom. Instructors might wish to support student wellness, but might not see how to do that while challenging students academically. Join us in this session to hear about some concrete ways Sarah incorporated student wellness activities into her course design, built trust and community among her students, and heard back from students about improved learning. You will then have the chance to reflect on how you can integrate these practices into your own instruction, whether virtual or in person.
