Integrating CP&P into your work with students

Intentional pause: Setting intention

We would now like to invite you to take a break from your reading. These intentional pause points have been placed throughout the OER, at the end of each section, to create time and space for you to check in with yourself.

Take a moment to…

  • Shift your position (between sitting and standing, facing a different direction, moving to another room) for a moment
  • Set an intention for the rest of the day, or tomorrow, that doesn’t end in, or is motivated by, productivity

Try out a contemplative practice

To conclude this section on integrating CP&P into your work, here are some practices focused on building connections between yourself, others, and the course material.
