SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Teach for Democracy: Facilitating Constructive Dialogue in an Age of Polarization
DESCRIPTION:Edward Ginsberg Center and Center for Research on Learning & Teaching present a special Democracy Week event with Nicholas V. Longo\, PhD with generous support from UM’s Democracy & Civic Empowerment Initiative.\n\nIn an age of division and polarization\, it is essential to develop skills for facilitating constructive dialogue. Join us for an interactive workshop with Dr. Nicholas Longo\, who works closely with students building civic skills and confidence as the inaugural director of the Rutgers Democracy Lab. Participants will develop skills such as learning to listen\, ask questions\, invite stories\, and find common ground. We will also introduce facilitation practices and then engage with relevant scenarios that will help us learn to work with others to address conflict in healthy ways. Ultimately\, this workshop is about helping faculty become bridge builders and change agents for a more vibrant democracy. The session is part of the Promoting Democracy Teaching Series\, co-sponsored by CRLT and Ginsberg Center.\n\nLunch is Provided and available at 11:45am. Program begins at 12pm. Space is limited and registration is required. \n\nREGISTER NOW : https://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/track/event/session/111893
