Finding reasons to persist

Description

I’m feeling things that are beyond what I understand as symptoms of burnout. I need to find reasons to persist in this work (because I need a job and aspire to do good work).

Objectives

Goal
1. Assess my service contributions on campus (Are they aligned with my values) 2. In writing, articulate the skills I’ve been cultivating in my discipline and beyond 3. Identify 3 actions that support my ability to persist in teaching and learning

Activities

Begin to design a workbook for TWP/INCP students. (Inspired by Martha’s workbook for us)

Assessment

Meet these deliverables (thinking small): – Read some of one of the books – Do some writing (3 artifacts)   Meet these deliverables (thinking big): – Land on 1-2 actions that align with my values and give me purpose at PSU  

Calendar

Bi-weekly thinking and writing.

“Policies”

  • This is YOUR mini-course syllabus. Do not get overwhelmed or discouraged by the work because YOU are in charge.
  • At anytime, you may revise/update your syllabus to reflect modified objectives, newly found resources, ideas for new activities, modified calendar, etc.
  • The CoLab is your partner in this course. In addition to reviewing all the syllabi to find opportunities for shared programming, group meetings, etc. we are available to brainstorm your ideas, rethink your goals, come up with activity ideas, etc. Feel free to make an appointment if you need to talk.
  • Since this is YOUR syllabus, feel free to share it with anyone you like (beyond your “Syllabus Cohort”) to get feedback or ideas.
