Managing Discussions of Controversial Topics

It’s an election year, and emotions can run high in classes — sometimes when you least expect it. Many instructors feel out of their depth when class discussion generates heated exchanges among students; even those that remain civil can be difficult to keep on track and educationally productive. In this roundtable discussion, we will explore strategies instructors can apply before, during, and after a class session to manage emotionally heated moments.

Participants are invited to email dhoskins@uwlax.edu before the session describing a “hot moment” they would like to discuss.
