| 1:00 PM - 2:20 PM | (Cancelled) Managing Burnout
FLEX # 509
The past four years have taken their toll. Even if you were feeling good about teaching online pre-COVID and were happy with American Politics pre-COVID, many of us struggle to keep our heads clear enough to deal with the heavy toll of so many deaths, so much illness, and the increasing levels of stress in our lives. Our students are struggling with anxiety and depression more so now than ever. How do we cope? How do we continue to provide caring instruction for our students if we, ourselves, are overburdened and burnt out? In this workshop, we will share our experiences with feeling and dealing with burnout. I will offer some scientifically proven strategies to manage the overworked, overstressed, and under pressure among us, as well as some tips to decrease the stress levels of students. | |

For example, the student's parent or guardian may have been incarcerated, the student is survivor of trauma and/or legal proceedings. We come in contact with system impacted students everyday in our classrooms, students services, and everyday interactions. How do we best serve our system impacted students? We will discuss the Rising Scholars program, the populations we serve, the mental health of system impacted students, and how to best support this underserved population. | |

| 3:00 PM | Introduction to Mnemonics: Phonetic Mnemonics (Multi-Day Event)
FLEX # 112
Mnemonic systems are strategies any one can learn and use to remember more. We often wish that we had a better memory: We'd be less forgetful; we'd learn more things; and we would be better at our jobs. The good new is that we can all improve our memories by using time-tested and evidence-based mnemonic strategies. 'Mental athletes' may astound us by their impressive memory feats, like memorizing decks of playing cards quickly, long lists of words or numbers, or reciting page after page of text verbatim. They will all tell you, however, that they don't have a special memory; they simply use mnemonics. And you can too. In this session, we'll cover the Phonetic Mnemonics, where digits 0 to 9 are represented by consonant sounds. These consonant sounds are combined with vowels to code numbers into words. Can be used to learn numbers or long lists of information. Combined with other strategies, its uses are endless. | |
