“Facilitating Difficult Dialogues”

Hosted by Kate Richmond and Mindy Erchull

 

Challenging conversations happen often, both in our classrooms as well as outside of them. In fact, it is becoming more common to have differing and strongly held perspectives raised in our increasingly polarized political climate. In this session, we’ll talk about how to frame classroom discussion to center around constructive dialogue rather than fraught debates where everyone wants to, but no one actually will, win. We’ll also talk about the interpersonal and intrapersonal skills students need to be able to engage in challenging dialogues in productive ways as well as some strategies to help students identify and build on the skills they have.
