Are you planning to integrate dialogue or dialogic pedagogy into your spring course? This interactive workshop offers a collaborative space for faculty to reflect, share, and refine their plans for inviting students into meaningful engagement with complex questions and diverse perspectives. Participants will be invited to complete a Dialogue Planning Worksheet in advance. We'll begin with a reflective conversation, followed by small-group discussions to explore ideas, challenges, and opportunities for designing dialogue-rich learning experiences.This workshop is most appropriate for those who have taken an introductory workshop on dialogue in the classroom or Essential Partners training—it serves as a follow-up for those looking to deepen their practice. This event is hosted by the Democracy & Dialogues Initiative (https://humanrights.uconn.edu/areas-of-focus/democracy-dialogues/), a program of Dodd Human Rights Impact in collaboration with the Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning (https://cetl.uconn.edu/).
