When Politics Enters the Classroom: How to Mediate Controversial Topics in Class

The Drake Institute and Office of Diversity and Inclusion are co-hosting a workshop, When Politics Enters the Classroom: How to Mediate Controversial Topics in Class, on Tuesday, Nov. 10 from 1-2:15 p.m.

Participants will learn how their definitions of political and controversial topics are subjective and based around personal experience, disciplinary training and educational background; develop their own framework for interpreting and mediating political discussions in class; and articulate the importance of nurturing political conversations among students.

This workshop can also applied toward completion of an Inclusive Teaching Endorsement.
