Our presentation will focus on how faculty can connect an empathic approach to teaching while upholding academic rigor. Let's venture beyond conventional teaching concepts and discover how understanding, encouragement, and academic rigor support student success. This is an opportunity to reimagine education, where classrooms become nurturing spaces fostering knowledge, empathy, and resilience. Join us as we cover three main topics. Starting with empathy, we will explore applying empathy in teaching practices, and reimagine academic rigor in a classroom environment of inclusion and trust.
