SUMMARY:Bok Seminar - Tools & Techniques for Leading Classroom Discussions
DESCRIPTION:<p>	Led by Suzanne Paszkowski and Rebecca Miller Brown</p><p>	How can you lead an exciting discussion and keep participants engaged from beginning to end? Which pedagogical techniques and strategies might be the most useful for working with undergraduates? How can you mobilize Zoom and other virtual platforms to lead discussions remotely? This seminar offers both a theoretical and hands-on approach to leading discussions and encouraging student participation in classes of all sizes. To that end, we will explore tools for conducting discussion asynchronously/outside of class to help you and your students prepare for discussions in the classroom; examine the pros and cons of various methods of how to start, structure, and conclude a discussion; strategize how to deal with moments of tension in the classroom; and take turns teaching short simulations of discussions followed by collaborative peer feedback. This seminar will be useful for building your confidence at leading discussions as a new TF as well as interrogating your methods and refining your skills as an experienced teacher.</p><p>	<a data-url="/seminars" href="/seminars" title="">Learn More and Register</a></p>
