How to Rebuild a Broken Connection With Students with Kristi Rudenga
Kristi Rud (https://learning.nd.edu/about/team-bios/kristi-rudenga/)enga (https://learning.nd.edu/about/team-bios/kristi-rudenga/), author of The Chronicle of Higher Education article, “How to Rebuild a Broken Connection With Students (https://www.chronicle.com/article/how-to-rebuild-a-broken-connection-with-students)” (2024), writes that while intergenerational misunderstanding isn’t anything new, “the tumult of the past five years seems to have supercharged the disconnect between students and faculty members.” In this episode, Dr. Rudenga, Director of the Kaneb Center for Teaching Excellence at Notre Dame, discusses her article and shares why human connection is essential, both for an instructor’s own job satisfaction and as an important precursor to student learning. Kristi shares practical, simple strategies that instructors can use to help build connections with students.
