    Structured dialogues increase student engagement and foster inclusive learning environments.  By incorporating dialogic modalities into the classroom, students can learn to communicate across difference and navigate challenging conversations while engaging deeply with course content.  In this collaborative two-part workshop, participants will learn to:

    • Build the foundation for successful dialogue
    • Explore multiple ways dialogue can be used
    • Apply practical strategies in the classroom
    • Share ideas and resources
