“Sometimes things seem to explode in the classroom, and what do we do then? Knowing strategies for turning difficult encounters into learning opportunities enables us to address important, but hot, topics such as- religion, politics, race, class, gender-in our classroom discussions.”

- Lee Warren, Derek Bok Center

The ‘Managing Difficult Classroom Moments’ workshop creates an opportunity for faculty members to develop concrete skills and strategies in order to effectively manage difficult classroom moments.

Objectives of the workshop:

Increase awareness that difficult classroom moments are normal and frequent occurrences in healthy learning environments;

Provide opportunities to engage in critical self-reflection that may assist understanding of responses to difficult classroom moments; and

Present strategies and tools to more effectively intervene in difficult classroom moments.

Time: 9 a.m.  – 12 noon

Light lunch will be served at midday

Space is limited. To register for the workshop please email Jodie Glean.
