Theme: Re-Examining Our Relationships With Our Students, Colleagues and Ourselves

Building and maintaining relationships is at the heart of our work as educators. Disruptions in face-to-face classes, labs and everyday life due to the COVID-19 pandemic have forced educators to re-examine how to maintain relationships with everyone around us, including ourselves. Together, we will consider new, evidence-based strategies that aim to improve student learning and academic life that will build and sustain relationships during a time of COVID-19 and the "new normal."
