Supporting Mental Health in Teaching

Event Description 

Nationwide, students seeking support and accommodations for mental health challenges are on the rise. Hosted by Faculty Fellow Charles Bailyn, the conversation will start with an introduction from Corinne Coia, Director of Yale College Wellness Programs, to resources for both students and instructors in meeting student mental health needs and how to navigate these sensitive discussions. We will further consider course structures and teaching approaches that can help to facilitate student success and preserve our own well-being. This conversation will help in the development of more general guidelines for student accommodations that will be shared with the Yale community at the end of the year. — Event Details: https://yaleconnect.yale.edu/rsvp?id=2261337
