Their panel was titled “Insider Identities and Inclusivity: Gen Z, Empathic Concern, and Teaching Writing.” Their individual presentations focused on the research on Gen Z that points to increased anxiety and depression in their mental health. They explored the practice of empathic pedagogy and administration to help some Gen Z students, GTAs, and instructors thrive in writing courses. Here are their individual presentation titles:
