Hello Fantastic UW Students,

Are you looking for a class to help you learn skills to navigate being a student at UW, internships or work, or for life overall? Do you need SSc or Writing Credits?

Consider taking EDUC 215 Wellness and Resilience for College and Beyond!
In EDUC 215 students learn skills to enhance their well being in college and in their life in general. Particular focus is paid to skills that help students withstand common difficulties in life, like a disagreement with a loved one, tolerating doing work you don't want to do, and managing negative emotions in a healthy way. Skills will include but will not be limited to mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills. Students will also learn about research underlying stress, resilience, and related skill areas.
For Spring 2025, there are two times and modalities to take this 5 credit class that also provides SSc AND writing credit. The first section will be fully in person meeting for lectures on Thursdays from 2:30-5:20pm PST with a one hour in person quiz section on Fridays for small group activities. The second section is a fully virtual section with virtual lectures on Tuesdays from 11:30am-2:20pm PST and then virtual synchronous quiz sections for one hour on Fridays. Asynchronous accommodations for lecture can be easily coordinated (synchronous participation in the one hour quiz section on Fridays is required). See the attached flyers for additional information.
EDUC 215 is also a part of the new Education Studies open enrollment, minimum requirement major<https://education.uw.edu/bachelor-arts-education-studies> <https://education.uw.edu/bachelor-arts-education-studies> starting in the fall of 2024! Sign up now before all the spaces are full!




With gratitude,

Co-Instructor for EDUC 215, EDUC 216, EDUC 381, and EDUC 317

As we continue to navigate the fallout from the Covid-19 pandemic and the resulting unprecedented times, many people are in need of different resources than they have previously looked for. The following resources may be of use to you or your loved ones in these times:

Please note that I receive a high volume of emails and do my best to respond to them promptly during school day hours. Typically I am able to respond within two school days; however, during particularly high volume email times such as the beginning and end of the quarter, responses may take me a bit longer. If I have not responded to your email within one week, please feel free to email me again as your email may have gotten lost in my inbox; this is not personal, just a function of the fact that I teach hundreds of students each quarter. If you have an urgent matter, please use other means to contact me if you are one of my graduate students and/or put URGENT in your subject line to alert me that a faster response is warranted. Thank you for your understanding.



I acknowledge my presence on the lands of indigenous peoples who have lived here since time immemorial and who have always and continue to thrive in this place. The University of Washington occupies lands of the Duwamish and Coast Salish peoples, land which touches the shared waters of all tribes and bands within the Suquamish, Tulalip, and Muckleshoot nations.

This land acknowledgement is one small act in the ongoing process of working to be in good relationship with the land and the people of the land. Please consider learning more about the history of this land and the privilege we have to be on it. Here is one resource for learning about this land https://native-land.ca/<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/native-land.ca/__;!!K-Hz7m0Vt54!nnlVQjTrm5EzdgfD8jgKf4CmzjXCqBHEccD9iOecDgZxixv3SL7FW33dX1QbxfDkObOMmoibiOUVVe3284Jx6Hw$>.
