Teaching: Student Mental Health Part II

Recently, I shared an article by Mays Imad that explored the challenges our students are facing, how struggle is natural, and how we can help them develop resilience. In this second installment, she digs deeper into the biological underpinnings of stress and resilience, sharing a systemic approach to resilience from Michael Ungar that she applies with her students. I appreciated how Mays framed resilience not only as an individual effort but also as a communal endeavor, which she eloquently captures with a quote from Toni Morrison.
