Students come to class carrying a lot of stress and distraction, which can make it hard to focus, participate, and retain what they are learning. Faculty cannot remove all the pressures students face, but a few simple, intentional teaching practices can help students feel more settled, present, and ready to engage.
 
Join mindfulness expert Jennifer Smith, Embedded Senior Counselor at Texas State, and faculty colleagues to explore easy-to-use strategies that reduce student anxiety, improve working memory, and help students become more engaged.
