7. ““I am heartened by the approach of starting first
with humanizing the online experience. It helped
alleviate my major fears about teaching online …
[and] see that there are tools and strategies and
people who care about the topic. I see the
possibilities so much better now.”
- CI Faculty Member

8. ““I have a much clearer idea of how to foster authentic
interactions in an online learning environment and why
humanizing online classes is so important. I am
enthusiastic about what can be achieved in online
teaching and also about how what I’ve learned shapes
my understanding of face-to-face teaching.”
- CI Faculty Member

9. ““I think this is a must take course
for faculty who plan to teach online
OR who think online learning is
nothing more than a glorified
correspondence school.”
- CI Faculty Member

Empathy is feeling
with people.
•See the world as others see it
•Be non-judgmental
• Understand the feelings of others
• Communicate our understanding of
that person’s feelings

31. When we start losing our tolerance for
vulnerability, uncertainty, for risk-taking —
we move away from the things we need
and crave the most like joy and love and
belonging, trust, empathy, creativity.”
