SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Preparing Students for Engagement: Appreciative Interviewing Skills
DESCRIPTION:Part of CRLT's Equity-focused Teaching @ Michigan Series\nActivities that ask students to conduct interviews\, particularly of community members\, can be a powerful method for helping students research real-world issues and understand diverse perspectives. While interview assignments are common across academic disciplines\, less common is explicit instruction for students on effective techniques for interviewing. How might we prepare our students to effectively build rapport with\, interview\, and collect stories or information from communities?\n\nIn this session\, staff from U-M’s Ginsberg Center will share methods for teaching students skills in appreciative interviewing\, an approach to interviewing that emphasizes interviewee expertise and encourages interviewers to guard against deficit-based thinking. Throughout the session\, we’ll model discussions and activities from Ginsberg Center that you can use to prepare your students for interviewing. In the process\, you’ll have the opportunity to practice skills that will strengthen your own communication with students\, be it in office hours\, classroom instruction\, supervision\, or other contexts.

SUMMARY:Other:Dissertation Defense: Aristotle on Living with Passions
DESCRIPTION:COMMITTEE:\nBuss\, Sarah (co-chair)\nCaston\, Victor (co-chair)\nRailton\, Peter\nShapiro\, Gabe\nJanko\, Richard (cognate\, Classical Studies)\n\nABSTRACT:\nThis dissertation is about how Aristotle understands the nature and value of passions. In the first chapter\, I focus on how Aristotle thinks passions function\, a question I show is central to his own investigation. I argue that Aristotle thinks passions function to motivate action in response to the evaluative considerations that passions make salient. I then show how this function helps us better understand how Aristotle thought passions help us navigate the world. In the second chapter\, I argue that we can illuminate Aristotle’s description of self-control as intrapersonal persuasion by looking at his account of interpersonal persuasion\, where he discusses concrete strategies that direct the audience’s attention\, evoke their passions\, and motivate them to act differently. The dynamics of these cases of interpersonal persuasion provide us with the outline of a compelling Aristotelian model of self-control. In the third chapter\, I develop an account of why Aristotle thinks it is impossible to feel fear and anger at the same time and show how this leads to what I call affective dilemmas: cases where a person must choose (in a sense) between two incompatible passions\, each of which would accurately represent how things are in the world.
