The Final Stretch

In this last week of classes, it’s easy to just focus on getting to the end.  But the last days of class can also be a recognition of the semester’s learning and positive sendoff for your students.  As Amena Shahid writes, “The last day of class should not feel like a transaction—it should feel like a moment of celebration. This does not require balloons or big productions. It might be a unique reflection from the instructor on what made this cohort special, a slide deck of class highlights, or a casual roundtable where each student shares a takeaway. Even small rituals can have a significant impact.”
