Full Description
This practical resource illustrates how to establish and nurture relationships with intention, paving the way for meaningful student, instructor, and content engagement.
Torres expertly peels back the layers of disengagement prevalent in today's college classroom and demonstrates how in-person and online courses can form ecologies that empower students and teachers rather than exhaust them. Informed by a rich blend of pedagogical research, case studies, and social interdependence learning theory, this book features plentiful activities, suggestions, and templates for cultivating and connecting care throughout learning environments. A worthwhile read for any faculty member regardless of level or discipline, this book is especially relevant for those who are new to teaching, concerned with student engagement, or interested in redesigning their courses.
