Critical conversations are charged moments in the classroom that can present in a variety of different ways, though they're often focused on questions that bring together topics of difference, power, and justice. Whether a critical conversation predictably breaks out in a discussion of a provocative text or unexpectedly erupts in response to a student comment, they are an opportunity for learning. But these heated moments can also leave instructors scrambling to regain control of the discussion. In this interactive Apprenticeship in College Teaching (ACT) seminar, participants will discuss the factors that can lead to critical conversations and learn strategies to prepare for and facilitate them. Kim Humphrey will facilitate this session. Enrollment is limited; please register as soon as possible, but no later than February 7th.
