Navigating Difficult Dialogue in the Classroom
This interactive and experiential workshop will explore strategies to facilitate dialogue in the classroom. This will include how to prepare for dialogue, sharing community agreements, creating a sense of community, navigating heated, offensive, or tense (HOT) moments, and facilitation techniques. Dr. Ropp will share dialogue resources from the SNF Paideia Program.
The strategies shared are relevant to any group dialogue and can be transferred to navigating dialogue for staff and with colleagues.
Dr. Sarah Ropp is Dialogue Director for the SNF Paideia Program at the University of Pennsylvania. In this role, she teaches undergraduate courses about dialogue in theory and practice; facilitates dialogue workshops and events for diverse audiences around campus; creates resources; and provides advising to students, staff, and faculty undertaking dialogue work. Sarah is a multi-lingual and interdisciplinary scholar/practitioner with over 20 years of experience in dialogue-centered education. She has lived, studied, and taught in 7 countries on 4 continents and in rural, small-town, and urban areas all over the United States. She holds a PhD in Comparative Literature from the University of Texas at Austin.
