Achieving the Dream
This playbook contains resources that can be used by individual instructors to support putting student care into action or by institutions seeking guidance for incorporating caring for students into their campus strategy and instructional development programming. While the impetus for this playbook was the COVID-19 pandemic, the information and resources provided represent high standards of student support regardless of the environment. This playbook provides detailed recommendations broken out into six sections. These recommendations include: (1) Reimagine your syllabus content; (2) Review and revise your course content; (3) Assess your students with care; (4) Develop and enact a communication plan; (5) Integrate institutional supports; and (6) Take time for self-care. Each of these Six Recommendations for Caring for Students provides concrete strategies and resources to support instructors in operationalizing equity-focused, inclusive teaching strategies that put student care into practice by acknowledging student challenges while identifying student assets. [For the companion playbook, "Caring for Students Playbook: Getting Started with Key Terms, Challenges, and Approaches," see ED613432.]
