Presented by Melissa Hawkins. Teaching in the time of COVID-19 helped many of us become more aware of the specific struggles that international students face as they navigate studying in another culture.  Although many of these struggles are not unique to this past year, the situation certainly intensified the experience of them for many students.  In this session, we’ll consider how to best support international students, both in and out of the classroom, through exploring lessons gleaned from our year of teaching virtually.
