Description
Summary:This article offers a brief account of pedagogical pivots necessitated by the challenges of teaching through the COVID-19 pandemic. We discuss two iterations of a class assignment that emphasized listening in natural spaces, and highlight the student-reported benefits of relaxation, calm, and clarity. Recognizing the need for additional resources to aid with mental and emotional health, we offer this account as a lesson of how we may cultivate spaces conducive to well-being-whether online or in more traditional learning environments.
