How Can I Use Mindfulness Strategies to Prepare Students for Learning?
We all know that higher education can be challenging, often filled with stress and pressure for both students and instructors. The negative impact of stress on students is undeniable and if not dealt with, it can lead to disengagement, decreased ability to focus and absorb information, and lower academic performance. Not to mention that when these negative effects happen, it just leads to more stress for the instructor.
However, educators can turn to mindfulness practices as a powerful tool to alleviate stress and create a more conducive learning environment. This offers students a way to clear their minds, refocus, and engage more effectively in their academic pursuits.
In this 20-Minute Mentor program, Steven Haberlin, PhD, Assistant Professor at the University of Central Florida, shares invaluable insights and strategies for seamlessly integrating mindfulness into the classroom. You’ll gain five field-tested activities, which were utilized by Dr. Haberlin and a panel of his peers, to help students reduce stress, be better prepared to learn, and apply mindfulness techniques as a lifelong skill.
