Episode Synopsis

In this podcast and article, Dr. Megan Jester describes an innovative learning activity in which  students share photographs (taken as part of class) that represent the mental health continuum. The activity begins with a faculty-led lecture introducing the mental health continuum. In groups, students walk around campus, taking photos of objects that reflect the continuum. Groups then create and share a PowerPoint slide featuring their selected object and write a social media statement. Dr. Jester explains how this activity can be adapted for other courses including those offered online.
