Creating a Sense of Belonging in the Classroom: A 2-part interactive workshop series
by Jean Kelly 07 Mar '24

07 Mar '24

Join us for an immersive workshop series blending trauma-informed pedagogy with current events discourse. In this 2-part interactive workshop series, participants will explore strategies for creating inclusive learning environments sensitive to the diverse traumas students may carry. Through reflective exercises, group discussions, and scenario-based activities, instructors will deepen their understanding of trauma’s impact on learning and develop practical techniques for fostering belonging and empathy in the classroom. We’ll explore how to incorporate trauma-informed principles to syllabus and curriculum development, as well as the interpersonal processes of instruction delivery. Additionally, we’ll delve into navigating challenging conversations around contemporary issues, equipping educators with tools to facilitate constructive dialogue and critical thinking among students. By the workshop’s end, participants will leave empowered with actionable insights to cultivate compassionate, informed, and trauma-aware educational spaces. Workshops: Part 1: A focus on trauma-informed pedagogies 3/27/24 Part 2: A focus on facilitating challenging and rewarding conversations 4/3/24 If you are interested in attending these workshops, please fill out this RSVP<https://forms.office.com/r/UA1DKTV9w3> form.
