At the beginning of each class students are asked, "What is your stress level on a scale from 1 to 10". As the semester proceeds, students begin to volunteer their answers and share personal information.
These four classroom activities prompt students to think about their own identity, their current state of mind, their purpose, their place at Hunter and in NYC. Students are asked to illustrate their thoughts by filling in shapes/drawings, using color, symbols or words. In one of the activities, they complete a template for a short poem.

I found my experience with Padlet to be very inviting and it led to incredible cohesion of the group. I loved how it uses visual and simple mechanics to engage thinking and connection. It also allows for a visual record to share and build upon.
This project converted one of the main essays into a semester-long project in which the students examined their responses to readings and writing exercises.
What we sought in this class where the students would never meet in person was a way for them to get to know each other a bit more, by being able to read about the experiences and reflections of the other students in the class.
