We engaged our audience with discussions about how teaching methods impact student wellbeing. Our qualitative results identified teaching practices that were not included in our <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/teachingandwellbeing\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=63&amp;action=edit\">UES surveys<\/a>, so we decided to ask students whether they found the teachings practices identified from the qualitative data important to their wellbeing (for more information on qualitative interviews please visit <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/teachingandwellbeing\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=83&amp;action=edit\">here<\/a>). During the event, students and instructors both commented on how having research evidence that these simple and yet effective methods promote student wellbeing is a positive progress towards enhancing student wellbeing on campus. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stay tuned for the results from our study!
