A student who lacks belonging may even skip your class more often than students who feel a sense of belonging there or be prone to show up to class late. Students w ho lack belonging may choose to sit in the back of the classroom or away fr om other students. Regarding language\, students who don't feel like they b elong may use "other" terminology when describing other students in their c lass. For example\, "students in this class seem to like the subject we are studying\," versus "students in our class….". If you hear one of your stud ents talking as if they are not a part of your class\, that is a pretty str ong indicator that they don't feel like they belong. https://www.youtube.co m/watch?v=Ak6T9kw0H28 DTEND:20210319T170000Z DTSTAMP:20241114T054734Z DTSTART:20210319T160000Z LOCATION: SEQUENCE:0 SUMMARY:Faculty support of students’ sense of belonging and emotional wellb eing UID:tag:localist.com\,2008:EventInstance_35980398025185 URL:https://calendar.ohio.edu/event/faculty_support_students_belonging_emot ional_wellbeing END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
