Thinking about ways to promote connection and care in your classes this fall? This brief article, Preparing and Sustaining a Classroom of Connection and Care: Practical Ideas and Activities,  shares a few ideas to help you get going. A more in-depth resource developed by Student Affairs and the Teaching and Learning Centre, Promoting Student Well-Being in Learning Environments: A Guide for Instructors, offers ideas to set the tone of your course and build relationships starting from before the course begins, in the first few weeks, and throughout the semester. The guide also has sections that specifically focuses on graduate students too.
