SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Classroom Activities for Engaging with Politics\, Policy\, & Social Issues
DESCRIPTION:Across the disciplines\, we can help our students to build skills for civic and democratic engagement that will serve them throughout their careers and lives. This role can be challenging\, however\, particularly in politically polarized times. Our goal for this in-person\, interactive workshop is to strengthen instructors’ toolkits for incorporating civic skills-building in the classroom and discipline. We’ll explore specific classroom activities for class sessions discussing policy\, politics\, and social issues\, such as deliberative dialogue discussions and conversation cafes. We’ll focus on how to select and design activities well-suited for the specific skills we are seeking to foster during a class period.  \n\nOpen to faculty\, staff\, admin\, GSIs\, and post-docs. \nThis session is offered as part of the Promoting Democracy Teaching Series\, co-sponsored by CRLT and Ginsberg Center.\n\nRegistration: https://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/track/event/session/105958
