Many educators experience a dip in well-being and optimism during the month of February and it's easy to see why—the days are still short and dark, student engagement tends to be low, and spring break still feels like a long way away.

In this webinar, Bono, a psychologist and author who teaches and conducts research on well-being, will offer insights from his course on The Science of Happiness, which he has taught for more than a decade to thousands of students at WashU. He will share strategies for persevering through the challenges of this time of year and reigniting joy in our personal and professional lives.

Audience: This webinar is for ALL audiences. 


Presenter:

Tim Bono, Washington University in St. Louis

Tim Bono, PhD is a faculty member in the department of psychological and brain sciences at Washington University in St. Louis where his teaching and research focuses on positive psychology and college student development. His work has been featured in media outlets including NBC News, CNN, Fast Company, and the Associated Press. Thousands of students have taken his popular courses on the Psychology of Young Adulthood and the Science of Happiness. He summarizes the research along with how his students have put that information into practice in their own lives, in his book, Happiness 101: Simple Secrets to Smart Living & Well-Being.
