Please join us for a 30-minute webinar with Dr. David Rosenthal, exploring practical tools for responding to student questions and concerns in health-related classes.
When
📅Thursday, October 22, 2026 🕛 3:30-4:00 PM ET + optional 15 min Q&A
Why Attend
Health-related class discussions don't stay theoretical for long—they surface real, sometimes painful experiences students are still working through. This session gives instructors the tools to meet those moments well, instead of being caught off guard by them.
Session Description
This webinar will provide participants with practical tools to respond to student classroom questions and concerns that are brought up in health-related classes. Many of the topics presented in class "trigger" reactions as students learn about themselves and personal experiences that have impacted their lives. The webinar will focus on a variety of class activities that can help explore these issues and develop their own wellness strategies.
What You'll Take Away
Practical responses for handling sensitive student questions and reactions in real time
Classroom activities that help students explore triggering topics safely
Strategies students can use to build their own wellness practices
