Every Monday, Magna Publications provides UConn faculty members with access to a 20-minute video from its “Monday Morning Mentor” presentation series. This series offers video-based programs designed to answer a specific question related to teaching and learning, delivering actionable insights in highly focused 20-minute presentations designed to fit busy schedules.
This week’s program, “How Do I Create a Climate for Learning in My Classroom?” can be accessed at http://www.mondaymorningmentors.com; use the following password: learning6830.
We’ve all encountered “toxic” learning environments–apathetic students, disillusioned faculty, an entire roomful of people waiting for class to just end, already. Keeping the classroom climate positive is the responsibility of both sides. Learn valuable concepts you can put to work right away in every class. Learn:
- How positive classroom climates are created
- Who creates positive classroom climates and how they are maintained
- Specific ways you and your students can contribute to the positive classroom climate
Available from Monday, October 5 – Sunday, October 11, 2015 at www.mondaymorningmentors.com.
