Today's Instructions

Welcome to day 3! 

Today's resources provide some strategies and tips for setting boundaries with learners.

Colleen Cruz's article offers a personal narrative of overextending oneself as well as interesting alternatives to typical responses that may obfuscate boundaries and lead to burnout. 

There is also a forum to share your thoughts on the Scope of Practice activity. Please let us know what you learned from the process and how you may incorporate any new awarenesses into your boundary-setting practice. 

The folder titled Boundary Setting in Emails provides an example of a student scenario involving boundary setting that I navigated in the not-too-distant past. There is also an optional activity for you to try composing an email response that offers support AND sets boundaries. 

I acknowledge that there's a lot of content in today's Moodle. Please don't feel obligated to deep dive into all of it. You are, of course, encouraged to set boundaries about what you take on during this week's course.  

I'm here if you have any questions.
