Facilitating CLassroom Conversations
As part of our involvement with Belong: An Inclusive Learning Community, all faculty, staff, and administrators are invited to register and attend “Feeling Welcome: Connecting Through Conversations,” on November 6, 2024, from 2:00-3:00 PM EST.
This session will focus on how educators can facilitate classroom conversations that incorporate diverse perspectives, guide students in respectful disagreement, and help students summarize discussions to identify key points and achieve closure. Presented by Dr. Teresa Nance, Vice President for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at Villanova University, this webinar will provide actionable strategies to enhance classroom dialogue and ensure all students feel heard and valued.
The Office of DEI will be hosting a live screening of the webinar and post-webinar discussion on November 6th from 2-3:30pm. Location TBD. Refreshments will be served.
I encourage you to take advantage of this professional development opportunity particularly as you consider ways to engage students in conversations post-election day.
