Corrupting The Youth: Teaching of Psychology

The Mental Health Crisis: How to Support Struggling Students


Listen Later

Hey Corrupters,

Jacob and I have been chatting a lot about mental health recently, and we'd thought it'd make for a good podcast topic, too. Sometimes it's hard to know what to do as a teacher to best support your students as they struggle with mental health issues, and given the mental health crisis in higher education, we are sure this is something a lot of instructors think about. We hope these stories and pieces of advice help!
