Kindness is more than just a simple gesture or a random act; it's a mindset that focuses on treating one another with respect, empathy, and inclusivity. As an educator, you play a powerful role in teaching interpersonal skills that promote a healthy school environment. In this course, you will set micro-goals for practicing empathy, revitalize existing lessons with SEL best practices, and guide students in crafting a PR plan to spread awareness about using kindness to address bullying. Learn how to shift perspectives with a visual representation of mirrors, windows, and sliding glass doors, and curate a two-month Kindness Calendar to infuse your classroom with intentional acts of compassion. By nurturing students' kindness and compassion, you’ll lay the foundation for a welcoming school community, and help students become caring individuals in the world.

Fall extended term provides access to a transcript before the end of the year with priority grading included in the cost of registration.

Enrollment Restriction: This course is also available in the regular Fall Term with identical content and requirements. Learners may enroll in this course only once, regardless of the term selected. Registration for the same course in another term is not permitted.
