I like the idea of this book, and totally agree with it. But I think it lacks concrete ideas that are practical in STEM courses. I'm already pressed to teach the course objectives in the time allotted to me, how can I take the time to include the types of activities that are in this book, that are not remotely related to STEM? I can't take time out of my lectures to have students fill out a worksheet about values, or to take a "step forward" or a "step back" if they have certain privileges or disadvantages in their lives.

I think now more than ever students need to foster a sense of connectedness with others, and I struggle to find ways to encourage and enable that. This book just makes me feel like a bad professor for not being able to give my students what they need (other than the subject content, that is).
