Description: When it comes to teaching, we may feel comfortable with our content but still be unsure about how class will unfold. Will students respond with enthusiasm? On the other hand, what happens if students get out of hand? How do I manage a classroom that is off topic, out of bounds, or generally unfocused? What can I do when conflict arises, all without stifling student participation? These concerns and others will be addressed in this informative, discussion-based workshop. Discussion of how to manage courses through the development of policies and dialogue with our students will help us to consider how we can foresee potential teachable moments and how we might handle them both gracefully and effectively. We’ll role play a few scenarios, consider the role of classroom policies, and more.
