Description

Humanizing Our Curriculum and Programs: Creating Supportive Learning Environments

Wednesday, March 2 at 10:00AM This session will offer insights into how to engage students and foster supportive learning environments during times of national, regional, and individual crisis. Considerations include utilizing content warnings, auditing our syllabi and programming maps to identify ways these can serve as mechanisms to cultivate safe spaces, suggest campus resources, and build relationships. Specific examples will be provided that will assist attendees with responding to specific student needs and recognizing ways that, as professionals, we can scaffold certain supports into our daily environments to initiate positive change.
