There is a strong connection between student mental health and wellness and academics: struggles in one area often affect the other. Instructors are in an important front-line position to identify concerns and help students connect with appropriate resources. At the same time, instructors must also prioritize their own well-being in order to be effective teachers and healthy human beings.

Identifying and responding to students in distress
This session by Student Wellness Services provides information about the mental health and mental illness model so that participants can learn how to recognize if students are struggling, with particular emphasis if someone is in immediate distress and/or in crisis. Participants will gain practical tips on what to say and do in order to connect someone with the appropriate resources.
Care Support Services helps to support students by getting them referred to resources early on. We rely on campus community members or 카지노 게임 컬렉션œCare Connectors" (e.g. academic advisors, coaches, residence life staff ) to help connect students who may be facing difficulties, either academically or personally, to resources and support services.

Five Ways to Attend to Wellness in Your Teaching
Time it right. Mid- and end-of-term are particularly stressful times for students. Take a couple of minutes to share resources for student supports.
Check in with students. Instead of diving right into a teaching session, take five minutes for a check-in. Create a slide with four different numbered pictures (animals, foods, places, album covers). Ask students to identify which number matches their mood.
Pair mental health with academics (1). Consider inviting a learning specialist into your course to talk about learning strategies for a specific assignment. SASS also has many online resources that relate academics to mental health and wellness.
Pair mental health with academics (2). Consider beginning your teaching session with a mindfulness activity. Paul Grogan of Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s Department of Biology has published research on his techniques in the demonstrate a different technique.
Try for flexibility in deadlines and workload. Adopt Universal Design for Learning strategies to give students as much flexibility and choice in assignment type and deadline as possible. You might have a 1-3 day submission window for assignments, tests, and exams, or drop the lowest grades from a set of similar assessments. At the same time, recommend a specific weekly schedule for students so they aren카지노 게임 컬렉션™t overwhelmed by choice.
Additional Resources
