Description:
We want our students to grapple with challenging content, but are we prepared to facilitate dialogue when the content evokes strong opinions and emotional response—or—no response at all? This session presents participants with proactive strategies for prompting and navigating discussion-based engagement. Participants will practice using tools that promote participation, reduce tension, and leverage productive dialogue.
