Resilience helps one to deal with challenging situations, and shows itself as endurance, determination, self-awareness, and confidence. This toolkit was developed for and with (future) teachers, taking into consideration situations at their university and during their internships.You can use the tools for yourself, as well as to support others who need to be resilient.
Teacher Resilience Toolkit
The toolkit is easy to use. Read the User guide on the next page and choose a tool with the help of the overview provided on the following pages. The left-hand side of the page for each “Tool” gives its title, goal, a short introduction, and step-by-step instructions. On the right, you’ll find “Tips & Tricks” for others who are helping you, or for yourself if you are supporting someone else. Research shows that helping each other has a positive effect; you don’t have to go through it alone. Each tool also provides additional materials, which you can access by scanning the QR code next to the Overview of Tools: extra tools, exercises, videos, background information, etc.
