Abstract
ABSTRACT This essay offers advice for building a student-oriented pandemic pedagogy adapted for remote learning that draws from instructor and teaching assistant experiences from teaching a large lecture class at UCLA in spring 2020. We suggest strategies for a student-oriented virtual classroom that fosters engagement through relatability, accessibility, and compassion. In particular, we offer an ethnic studies pandemic pedagogy that centers taking care of your students and yourself in a historic moment of uncertainty and anxiety spurred by the pandemic, growing anti-Asian racism, and the movement for Black lives.
