Quick Mindful Check-ins and Brain Breaks for Students

This guide provides faculty and staff with simple and quick methods for supporting students’ mental health. The activities are designed to help build community, incorporate mindfulness, build motivation and practice compassion. The guide is intended to provide very short activities that can be incorporated anytime during class or when working with students.

Quick Response Card

At the suggestion of Mevin Hooten, a professor in the statistics and data sciences department, we created a Quick Response Card to support faculty and staff in identifying and supporting students in distress. The front side shows different levels of distress and lists specific resources for supporting a student based on the observed distress level. The back side provides a list of mental health support resources. Visit this page to see the information from the card and to request physical copies of the card to be campus mailed to you.

WBLE Guidebook

The WBLE Guidebook acts as a centralized resource for faculty, providing comprehensive information on WBLE in one accessible location.

Texas Well-being Canvas Course

To help faculty support student wellness, we continue to add resources to our Well-being in Learning Environments Canvas course, including well-being modules that faculty can import from the Canvas Commons to use in their own courses.

Texas Well-being Flyer

Our flyer gives a short overview of the project with example strategies University faculty have used to support student well-being. It can be used to recruit other faculty.
