Title:
How do you teach empathy? - Jonathan Juravich
Description:

When you tell a kindergartner to "walk in someone else's shoes" it can be kind of confusing. Why should they put on someone else's shoes? What if they wear a different shoe size? 2018 Ohio State Teacher of the Year and art educator Jonathan Juravich is interested in finding ways to teach empathy that go beyond catchphrases, and instill an awareness of others that can be expressed through action. Drawing from experiences in his classroom and home, Jonathan describes several exercises he's used to help students identify their emotions and invest in the feelings of others.
