Unlock the power of meaningful dialogue in your classroom with our professional learning session on fostering discussion-rich environments. This session dives into the importance of engaging students in disciplinary concepts, current events, and controversial topics, recognizing that teens are eager to explore the "big" subjects that shape their world. You'll explore effective teaching practices and assessment strategies, learn how to establish norms and protocols that facilitate productive discussions, and leave with practical, ready-to-use ideas to enhance classroom dialogue and student engagement.
